Why are we not hearing about Ronald Thompkins?

He had another knee surgery. Not looking good but you never know
Formal word was it was a cleanup from the previous surgery
Agree though with two major knee injuries he has a tough road to hoe
Not be a language nazi, but I found this, from Grammarbook.com, to be a pretty funny comment on "road to hoe" vs "row to hoe": "A road handles a lot of foot traffic and takes a beating from bicycles and cars. No one but a lunatic would want to hoe a road."
You mean like "not be a language nazi"
Why don't you tell us what you think about the OP?
OK, fair enough. I'll shut up as I have nothing to add to what's been said.
Well, I was gonna do it if you hadn't already. Hilarious.
Kid is tough as nails and will eventually make a difference.
It would be a great story if he recovered and became a contributor. I'm hoping for that.
By the way, RR might have intended a "tough road to haul," which means about the same as "tough row to hoe."
You never know, though . . . ACL repairs being what they've become, you can see guys with more than one repair (sometimes on the same knee) come back pretty strong. He had some time to heal up the major repairs, so hopefully he's one of those dudes who can make a run at full recovery and some decent football life?

I think I remember my grandfather using the phrase, "a tough row to hoe". I took it as something like hoeing weeds in a bean field.
Or weeds in the corn. That's it exactly.
