Irish Jet Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 They should never have signed him. Walker was incredibly talented but has so many issues. I'd be very concerned for both his injury problems and his state of mind. He's a had a rough time of it over the past few years. I genuinely hope he recovers and does well. Also LeBron24Jets must have been 124. LOL Glad that's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Wasn't their a Walker article posted by myself less than two months ago about how he feels great and is ready for the season and cannot wait to take on Denver in Week 1? Great attitude Javon. Still living up all the hype but he can't produce on the field because of injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Also LeBron24Jets must have been 124. LOL Why would you say that? I was at work today and couldn't even get onto JetNation before 2pm, when I left for work. I love how people believe I'm this clown and kobe24jets. Max, once again, shut them up.
