Drake Has Torn Ligaments

[NT80]

I wasn't saying that there are no exceptions to HIPPA protection, but that those posting in regards to injuries on such forums as these should be aware that there may be legal limitations on such information. It would certainly be understandable if those maintaining public forums chose to delete or lock threads due to irresponsible posting about medical conditions. Again, I think that common sense could be used to call into question whether the original poster of the original thread on this matter was behaving responsibly by inviting speculation about "a big time player" being injured. Parents of players (many of whom may think their child is "big time") read this board, and unless players have more perfect communication with parents than I suspect, such speculation might lead to cause unnecessary anxiety to such parents. Regarding Franchione, I don't think his actions (if you're referring to his private newsletter listing player injuries) helped his career any; it seemed that the A&M administration was truly furious with him.

Yes, what he said.
