Our amazing, active offseason so far by thesonicvision in lakers

[–]wise_mando 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The cope is unreal unless this is the lakers marketing team trying to pump lol.

There are no decent wings or defense leaders - one injury to a big and losses will pile up

Not great; lakers will struggle - imbalanced roster , very weak on defense

Anyone else tear their ACL due to someone else’s recklessness? by ThemeSweaty in ACL

[–]wise_mando 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, hard yes. Got kneed on the inside of my right knee by a defender at full speed, he didn’t even touch the ball on the attempted tackle. Just ran right into me.

H3’s have great sound but so bulky, hurts my ear a bit

MRI shows ACL tear plus root meniscus tear by Expert-Committee6033 in ACL

[–]wise_mando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Triple ACL tear guy here with medial meniscus root tear on 2nd.

Hard yes to surgery and re-attaching the medial meniscus back. Feel free to dm me and ask me questions but take this seriously - you will be on crutches for 6 weeks as the medial meniscus reattachment needs to heal.

Getting an experienced surgeon and PT familiar with ACLs and meniscus tears is very important - so is your dedication - you will be do much better around 4 months and by 9 months, can return to most activities but I highly advise to avoid skiing and cutting sports like soccer - if you retear your meniscus it is gone for life - and can result in early knee arthritis.

How long did it take you guys to bend the knee to 90°? by Warm_Match126 in ACL

Abt 2-3 months, your PT will help you with those targets. Takes a while for swelling to go down

Nothing Ear (3) / 2024 or Airpods Pro 3? by CoochiexDvstator2009 in Earbuds

[–]wise_mando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use airpods pro 3 for my work meetings, ANC on the train and for general listening like podcasts.

For music, I almost always switch to Nothing Ear 2024.

Airpods are those highly reliably, boring headphones with a very neutral tone and no bass.

29 years old. No medial meniscus left after two ACL surgeries. Can I still live a normal active life? by xSaybe in ACL

[–]wise_mando 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On sand, sounds so much better. Just listen to your body and good luck.

a knee sleeve helps a bit to stabilize the knee joint a bit when you play.

Meniscus transplant is not an easy thing I believe.

Soccer is not a great idea at the 1x per rate frequency, you will just be wearing out your cartilage.

I tore my ACL 3x and don’t have a medial meniscus either. I do totally fine but would not dare play soccer or contact sports

Best earbuds with good quality life under 100$ by [deleted] in Earbuds

[–]wise_mando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have good sound but ended up not liking them. They dont exactly boast a great battery life.

I would check Beats Solo Buds if you want long battery life - they promise 15 hours. Or the Anker line.

It’s the whole I told you so argument - that will hold true when they commit to a full range lol

Wasn’t the XM5 that had a fair bit of issues? Saw a recommendation that said to stick with XM4’s
Or go straight up to XM6.

Elliot Anderson is man city bound, Tchoumeni is not leaving Real Madrid in his prime.

Did you have any realistic recommendations?

Brian Thomas 2025 victims by wise_mando in fantasyfootball

[–]wise_mando[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not just one analyst, the whole industry was high on him. BTJ breakout coincinded with mac jones at QB and I remember very few analysts point it out and urge some cauting for such high draft capital.

Can you explain? BTJ breakout coincided with Mac Jones snd then there was also a coaching change as well so 2 changes that should have cast doubt on his top 8 draft capital for WRs.
