Let's assume hypothetically you're a message board poster

[Norm Peterson]

Imagine you're a message board poster for a team nearby. And you post on your team's board, on a thread related to your team's prospects for the upcoming season, that you're hopeful that a couple of players for a different team remain injured and out of the lineup when you face them later this year so that your team stands a better chance of winning.

 

And then, literally within 40 minutes, news breaks that your projected starting center suffered a catastrophic leg injury.

(Someone who's versed in these kinds of things, can you get a screen grab for me? Just in case denials issue.)

By the way, lest there be any lack of clarity, I feel really bad for the Epperson kid from you-know-where.  Good player coming out of high school and has been saddled with injuries his first two seasons. I'm sure he was hoping for a break-out year this year and now this happens.  Poor kid.  Really feel for him.  And I know what being on crutches is like and it sucks.  Badly.  So, I've said a prayer for him.  And I hope he recovers quickly and completely because being on crutches sucks and you only get one shot at a college career.

I don't even put myself in position to read that kind of drivel elsewhere, particularly when it comes to the eastern Omaha squad. So, who were the two dudes who were wished to be out ???
