I just feel that there is more to this....

I live with chronic back pain, you can bet if I had Luck's money my butt wouldn't be taking a pounding and making it worse every day either.....

It's a damned tough one to walk away from once you get used to them killing pain for you. Once you get used to them ordinary pain becomes extraordinary pain when they're not around when you need them. Just minor aches and pains become debilitating pain. I'm sure I'm not the only one here who's been through that mess.

Testing starts the third week of April and runs through camp, preseason and even regular season.

It's unfortunate, but at times injured payers resort to certain pharmacotherapies to heal...... I will leave it at that.

Abrupt retirement by a top tier player is not common - especially a player who doesn't seem to have a career threatening injury.

My comment is not a knock on Luck's character. This news saddens me, truly.

But I feel there is more to this.
