Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 3035350, member: 405"] Muscular injuries that are described as "strains" and "sprains" are usually actually muscle tears; small or large. That's what I've learned watching soccer for the last 10 years. An MRI on a muscle injury is usually to assess how much of a tear there is in the muscle fiber. So, I think the injury was severe enough that nobody should have balked at him shutting it down for the rest of the playoffs, but of course sports shows are just as bad as cable news, and then social media amplifies these buffoons to the point that players feel compelled to play against their better interest, just because of social pressure.
