What happened to Frazier? Blood clots in the legs, right?

 

Hey, what about Dominique Wilkins?

Yeah, Frazier had blood clots.

 

I wouldn't count Dominique. He didn't have a major injury until late in his career (torn Achilles when he was a Clipper), and he played up until he was in his late 30s with Orlando and Boston.

"Steve Emtman"

 

That name reminds me of Trev Alberts, although he didn't have much of a career to begin with. I just remember Mel Kipper (sp?) chewing out the Colfs on Draft Day for picking him over Trent Dilfer and some guy on the Colts tore back into him...

Trev Alberts has said that he was a bad draft choice.

So? I just remember that draft-day exchange and it was funny as hell.

So? The whole incident between Polian and Kiper was Kiper though Alberts was a bad pick, and Alberts admitted he was a bad pick.

ANYWAY...the Colts don't make very good draft day decisions, do they? Emtman, Alberts, trading Faulk (Edgerrin is no longer on Faulk's level).
