I worry about someone with his condition playing football. I have seen some real damage caused to the body when exposed to trauma and having diabetes. I really wish he would just join the rest of us in the stands.

Jay Cutler was diagnosed this offseason as well and has been cleared to play for Denver.

I don't necessarily disagree with you...its certainly not an area of expertise for me (thankfully).

Justin Padron

Yes, this is the Justin Padron that supposedly left North Texas due to health related, diabetes, issues. He is a great leader on the field, if you ever watched him at SLC, and I wish the young man nothing but success. It was originally reported that he was going to transfer to A&M, but I think with his brother signing with SMU, he had second thoughts. His nickname at SLC was "The General" so that should give you an idea about his leadership abilities.

Again, I wish him nothing but the best, but am concerned about his health issues and playing.

Hey, General Patton. You've got an heir!
