That's really weird because this guy has been the "Team Chiropractor for the NFLs Washington Redskins" since 2010. And according to their website, this guy "is entering his sixth season with the Redskins as the teams Physical Therapist/Assistant Athletic Trainer in 2013."
Yet eits was living somewhere near St. Louis and then moved to Maryland in 2013.
Now this is just some simple digging around (literally all of 5 minutes), so I'd love for some extra clarification from eits on the inconsistencies. No doubt the information on both of those guys is outdated and eits was their successors, until him and the team...parted ways for some reason?

yes, yes he did.
yeah, i must have accidentally left out "cheerleaders" after "provider to the redskins". an unfortunate error on my part lol. my bad.
the rest of it accurate.
Oh, undoubtedly.
Still feel this way?
1, (edit) when i said i was one of the official chiro and pt providers for the redskins, it was an error. it should have said redskins cheerleaders. i apologize about that. however, i have treated a couple redskins players.
2, i thought i'd said i was one of the official team chiropractors and physical therapy providers for the redskins cheerleaders. i'm using a small, logitech wireless keyboard which has cramped keys. sometimes, when i go to punctuate to end the sentence, i accidentally hit a combination of keys and somehow highlight the word i had just typed and hit period. i'm assuming that's what happened in this case (my main computer is hooked up to the projector in my basement for movies and such... when i typed this, i can tell i was using my computer rather than my phone because nothing's capitalized).
3, the redskins athletic training staff is atrocious and has been for years now. i'm praying a few of those guys get fired.
4, i grew up in the dc area, went to school and practiced in st. louis, then moved back to the dc area in 2013 and worked at a chiro/pt clinic (official chiro/pt providers for the redskins cheerleaders). i opened my own clinic in september of 2014.
i still think rg3 is a far more accurate and stronger passer than luck.
quoted so he can't edit it.
honestly, i have no reason to lie.
i have treated two redskins players; i can't tell you which. i also have treated a few professional soccer players, both men and women, as well as internationally ranked crossfit athletes.
redskins park is in richmond, va, about 3 hrs south of where i live, and allow the public to tour, watch, and ask questions to the players during certain times. most of the trainers don't talk to the public, and if you have credentials, they'll show you the training facility and weight room (at least that was the experience i had... not sure if that's commonplace).
no actually, redskins park is in ashburn, va, and that is where they practice and it's not open to the public at all during practice and the regular season, and the media has very limited access.
they do training camp down in richmond. and training camp is open to the public. it's for a couple weeks before preseason even starts. anybody can go down there and ask questions and take videos and get autorgraphs. anyone can go ask "athletic trainer" questions at richmond during training camp.
this thread is such a trainwreck.

I have to ask ... what exactly are you looking at to draw this conclusion?
also, i'm still not sure why a few of you are giving me such grief over my opinion. seriously, how does my opinion on this affect you in any way?
Because most peoples opinions have at least some fleeting ties to reality. :|
- You said that RGIII was going to be better than Luck.
- By any standard measure, he isn't...
- Like...not even close.
- You could have amended your prediction, or simply admitted defeat and bowed out.
- Instead, you doubled down on retard.
The whole "well, technically I was the Chiropractor for one of the ***skins football players cousins sons pee wee football coach's parakeet" just adds dimension. A veritable "icing on the cake of your ownage", if you will.
Is RGIII a total bust? I think so, but that's just my opinion. He may come back and have a few good back up years still ahead of him.
You can think RG3 is a bust if you want. That's fine. Personally, I think its too soon to judge his ability, same with Andrew Luck.
i still think rg3 is a far more accurate and stronger passer than luck.
2014 stats don't really count because rg3 has only started 7 games this season and played in 9. his completion rating is 68.7% and has thrown 6 interceptions.
luck's accuracy this season was 61.7% with 16 interceptions, but he's played in all 16 games. luck has definitely developed each year and he is accurate with his long passes, but overall, he isn't that accurate.
anyway, that's part of why i said i'd like to see what 2015 brings. the only real accuracy numbers that can be extrapolated are from 2012, when both quarterbacks were healthy. rg3 had the 4th best accuracy in the nfl. however, he's had a major injury between now an then, psychologically he's weaker because of it, and he's got a whole new offense than before with less protection. but, again, that's 2012... this is 2015. let's see how things go in 2015 and we can discuss it all then. i'd be more than happy to admit i was wrong if i am.
I did say RG3 was going to be better than Luck. Prior to RG3's injury, he was. Now, he is not.
RG3 I believe has one more year on his rookie deal, so he may get one final shot next season. Maybe. It's possible that he gets cut from the Skins and if that happens we may never see him again.
While I'll admit that almost anything is possible I'll be shocked if RG3's numbers go anywhere but down in 2015. I'll be equally shocked if Luck's don't improve quite a bit, however if I'm proven wrong I'll give credit where its due.
In my 40+ years of watching football I've yet to see a run-first QB achieve any lasting success in the NFL and I seriously doubt RG3 will be the one to change that. Frankly I'd take Cam Newton over him in a second (never mind Luck or Wilson) and I have my doubts about him holding up long-term as well.
Edit: Thinking it over the most successful running NFL QB I can recall would be Randall Cunningham, a player I feel never got the credit he was due. The thing about Cunningham was that he was pretty damn tough which is something RG3 just doesn't seem to be.
The very notion that RG3 is a better passer than Luck is outlandish. Just watch film of the two operating from the pocket and it is no contest as to who the better QB is.
His main argument seems to be that the Colts are a much better team overall then the Redskins but the reality is that aside from the QB the teams are pretty close and the difference is all Luck. Without him the Colts are a mediocre team at best. (no offense intended ... they had a lot better year then my Giants!)
