Posted August 23, 201410 yr comment_75587 Kory #1Time Sheets @Sheets24K · 9m A dream deferred....out for the year Sounds like it was an Achilles tear. He left today's game after a fumble.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75598 Now if the Vikings can just finish Dressler off tomorrow night ...
August 23, 201410 yr Author comment_75601 Now if the Vikings can just finish Dressler off tomorrow night ... If he even plays. They have hardly used him. On another note. Pretty harsh to hope for an injury.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75602 Now if the Vikings can just finish Dressler off tomorrow night ... Ouch.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75626 Gotta feel bad for the guy. Achilles is a tough injury, for a running back especially.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75627 Now if the Vikings can just finish Dressler off tomorrow night ... Coming from a guy who called out Chad Johnson as classless for some harmless behavior, this is incredibly ironic.
August 23, 201410 yr Author comment_75643 No matter the circumstance, and no matter who the player is and what team he's on, it is never OK to hope for a player to get hurt. It's not like you would hope for a random citizen to get hurt, so how is it any different in sports? It's in bad taste.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75674 Never hope for serious injuries, I've cheered though in the past when certain players got injured and had to leave the game, but those are guys who i'd consider dirty players, like if hebert or shea emry got hurt, I wouldn't be too upset, Don't want them to have serious injuries though. Hell, i'd go as far to say that when Calvillo was playing and we were playing Montreal and he got hurt, that i cheered lol. I don't see the harm in hoping a guy gets injured, maybe not hoping but if he does, i ain't gonna cry over it that's for sure.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75677 I have no trouble saying that I wish Dressler gets nicked up tomorrow night. Not a serious injury...maybe a bad hammy pull. Just enough so he misses the rest of the CFL season. If that makes me classless...so be it.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75695 At Sheet's age, this may be an injury that's hard to overcome. I'm not a Sheet's fan the way he was mouthing of last season about Jon Cornish always saying he was the better back but you never like to see anyone get hurt. Even Dwight Anderson.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75707 @AdamSchefter: Raiders RB Kory Sheets tweeted he's out for season with a torn Achilles. Raiders liked him, too.
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75716 Why would anyone want Dressler to get hurt for the year? If anything I'd want him to get cut and then the Blue sign him!
August 23, 201410 yr comment_75899 @CFL_News: RT .@HomeOfTheFans: Darian Durant says he spoke with Kory Sheets is taking the injury well, realizes that he'll be okay financially. #riders
August 24, 201410 yr comment_75913 It was a joke, don't want an injury, over react much? I would love if we signed Dressler even if we don't really need him and can't afford his salary. The angst and vitriol over at the rider site would be worth it

August 25, 201410 yr comment_76131 does he get paid? Should get an injury settlement What would that amount to? Is it an insurance thing? Considering an achilles tear is often a career ending injury, what's THAT worth? I hope he beats the odds and recovers.

Considering an achilles tear is often a career ending injury, what's THAT worth?I hope he beats the odds and recovers. It's negotiated. Wouldn't be surised if he gets what he was signed for since it's season endinghttp://overthecap.com/what-exactly-are-injury-settlements/ Edit he might just sit on the IR too http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/236279-negotiating-an-injury-settlement-by-jack-bechta

Still not clear what will happen to Sheets though. Was he signed? I apologize for my ignorance.
