[QUOTE="GTpdm, post: 163278, member: 1451"] Let's keep in mind that Snoddy's injury was not the result of contact with a defender; it was a 'freak' accident in which one leg was broken by the violent forward motion of the other. If there is a psychological hurdle in his recovery, it is in overcoming the fear that he might re-injure himself by running too hard, NOT that he might get injured by contact with a defender. Think about that: we have an A-Back whose on-field boogeyman (if he has one) is the awesome destructive power of his own lower-body running strength. How's a [U]defender[/U] going to feel, facing off against a running back who has actually [I]run so hard he broke his own leg[/I]! (I can't help but picture Berthold from [I]"The Adventures of Baron Munchausen[/I]".) I'm looking forward to seeing Snoddy back on the field this Fall. I'm confident he'll have a productive season--not just for himself, but for what he brings out in his teammates. [/QUOTE]
