Larkin Out Two Weeks!

i'm with you guys, we've been there before and we'll be just fine without Larky for two weeks. We need to focus on getting some wins under our belt while he's out and hopefully he'll come back healthy and hungry!

we can FOCUS on getting some wins under our belt but LET'S NOT SUGGEST we're just gonna pick up where Larkin left off after two weeks off that's some wishful thinkin!!!

I disagree with you there, Hank. These kids get hurt nowadays and they're out for weeks on end, then they come back and expect to pick up right where they left off? In my day a player would fight through an injury if it meant winning a game for his team. Larkin's gonna have to be ready to go when he comes back, not just fall in line with the rest of the lineup.

Yeah, those were the days when men played through pain. I'm pretty sure we're all just gonna have to accept that our current crop of players isn't made of that same stuff.

I don't think it's fair to say our current players aren't made of the same stuff. Larkin and others have shown they're willing to push through injuries before taking time off.

Hank's being dramatic, Larkin's a pro and will be fine after two weeks off. We've seen guys come back from similar absences and pick up right where they left off before.

haven't seen that either but this team's been doing just fine without him in the lineup before - hopefully he comes back ready to roll tho!

WE ALL KNOW LARKIN'S A PRO but we should expect him to DOMINATE on his return, NOT just pick up right where he left off - that's not the standard here!
