Back in his HS days in Florida Bob Hayes was one of the fastest boys in the nation, so when Jimmy "Peach Head" Douglas (a red headed black cat) beat him at the Florida State Champs, big news.
Douglas would be shot down in a gang related incident before Hayes got a chance to revenge the defeat. [Reply]

If that is the case, sounds like a pinched ulnar nerve. Depending on the damage to the nerve he may never have a 100% recovery. My ulnar nerve was pinched a few years ago. Had surgery to release the nerve and it was not fully successful to heal the nerve.
Ben may never have feeling in parts of his elbow as they may have to cut a nerve in the way to release the ulnar. Muscles can be removed. Structural integrity is compromised. Feeling in fingers may or may not come back. I believe this will force Ben to retire. [Reply]
The Steelers' loss of Ben Roethlisberger dramatically changes the AFC playoff landscape. The Steelers are a lower mid-tier team with anyone else at QB. Historically, that is.
The battle for the AFC North is now solely in the hands of the Ravens or the Browns.
The Ravens have more playoff experience, while the Browns have better talent on their roster.
However, without the Steelers in the mix as the proverbial goal post, the odds are against either the Ravens or the Browns going very far in the playoffs this year. [Reply]

Sounds like a cooper story if I ever heard one. [Reply]
