Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.
I wondered yesterday if Big Ben was heading to "Tommy John" surgery. For pitchers, they frequently are looking at more than a year to recover. If that is his injury, and Rothlisberger is looking at missing 2020 as well, this could be a career ender for him.

Someone posted that NFL QBs often just wait for the injury to scar and call it a day. They often don’t opt for surgery like a pitcher must.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Is Tommy Johns an overuse injury? This seems so weird on a football player to me. The video is just strange - no contact or anything. Looks like a routine throw and pop.

One note on the looming elbow surgery for #Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger: The procedure he’s having is not Tommy John, I’m told, and the recovery is not as long as that would be. He’s stated his goal is to be ready for next season.

•$16M of 2020 salary & bonus guaranteed for injury
•$14M of 2021 salary & bonus guaranteed for injury
•2020 Roster Bonus: $12.5M (3rd league day of 2020)
•2021 Roster Bonus: $15M (3rd league day of 2021)
His contract runs out after the 2021 season, when he's 39 yrs old. Next yr he's a cap hit of 33.5M with 25M in dead cap if he's cut. In 2021 he's a 31.5M cap hit but only 12.5M in dead cap if cut. Wouldn't shock me at all if after next season, he's done as a Steeler and a football player.
