AG. In order.
No
Wouldn't know, mate
I thought about and had an OPINION
Not bloody likely. I don't do Holiday Inn Express. What is there to like? Why should is there is a neeed at the Holiday Inn Express? Did his medics stay there?

I write this on a forum where opinions are accepted. Not all I state is based on facts, expertise, etc etc.

Enjoy your day, Sir. That is an expression of platitude. It is not based on any facts I have of you or staying at Holiday Inn Express or wherever you were or will be.

I was questioning your insistence that Graham should have surgery as stated below. Perhaps it comes from 25 years working as an analyst, but it frustrates me to see assumptions without any supporting facts at all.

That is against the risk of continuing, as he has done, with an injury that made him pretyy well ineffective last season.
Graham came into this past season perfectly healthy. He suffered the shoulder injury in week five in the overtime win against Tampa bay. It was determined at that time that surgery was not required and playing with the shoulder was possible. That was obviously confirmed following the season. Graham shared the "fact" that surgery was not required and rest, which was not possible during the season, was all that was needed for recovery.

As I mentioned before, surgery is ALWAYS the very last resort. One can fully recover from a wide range of injuries through rest followed by physical therapy.

Re: Jimmy Graham says current plan is no shoulder surgery

Having gone through a couple shoulder surgeries, I can tell you the last things doc's wanna do is surgery, not to mention, at least for me, I haven't seen exactly what the damage is? a lot of times, surgeries aren't the "fix all", and also a lot of times surgeons will tell you they won't know what they are gonna do until they get in their. Not everything is at appears on MRI's. I'm sure the doc's have a better idea of whats best more so than say any of us. If anything, he probably should have skipped the pro bowl, rested and began rehabbing/strengthening it.

Re: Jimmy Graham says current plan is no shoulder surgery

Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy !!! All that money the Saints paid you and you dunk at the pro bowl. Now I think his injury must be healed up, should be no more excuses for drops, quitting on plays, blocking defenders, and in particular going over the middle. If your well enough to dunk a football over a goal post, do the rest or is it all show!! Earn that high dollar contract you got last year because you aint' earned that big money contract with your abilities last season. Be more like Gronk if you can.
