Art Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 That would be almost so ironic it'd be funny . Damn Broncos. Letting this poor fat guy get out of shape. Sheesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yomar Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 There is a pretty drastic difference in humidity between Denver and DC in August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrapeApe Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 I just heard it on 980 too. John Thompson said it could be altitude related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Think maybe the change in altitude and humidity might have had an impact? Can't believe that he is already in Skins camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Dammit. Hopefully it is just one of those humidity adjustment issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-SkinsFan Posted August 26, 2003 Author Share Posted August 26, 2003 I guess better now then in the first regular season game. Remember in 2000? The first regular season game against Dallas. We were up 21 pts in the 4th qtr only to watch them come back and win it because we were dropping like flies from the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakofthesouth Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Isn't he prone to heat exhaustion? I hope this isn't a sign of things to come... At least we know he is working hard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Punani2 Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Originally posted by GrapeApe I just heard it on 980 too. John Thompson said it could be altitude related. HUH? That doesn't make one bit of sense... Altitude only effects oxygen levels not heat related illnesses. In fact, it would benefit Dalton more going down in altitude because the oxygen levels are higher near sea level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All In Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Get him on the treadmill and back in game shape. Good thing we'll be rotating guys. Keep those big fellas fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsbadd Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Samuels had problems with the heat also,lets not be to quick to right this guy off. I am wondering if he was taking his physical when this happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what Thompson meant was he just got off an airplane this morning from denver, and the flight, altitude, when he landed his body wasn't ready for the humidity it is 106 out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
