You're making an extremely dangerous assumption by trying to put this in a vacuum when that's clearly not the case. People heal at different rates even with the same injury. An injury that takes me four weeks to heal might take your six weeks to heal. Quarless' knee injury was significantly worse than Adrian Peterson's, and there were several people who didn't think he'd be ready to play this year. Quarless tore his ACL and MCL, and I believe there was cartilage damage (but don't quote me on that). I just don't understand how you can look at this and say because one player is back, the other one should as well. That doesn't account for difference in healing, setbacks, etc.
And the notion that the Vikings somehow care less about their players getting injured is ridiculous. If anything, the Vikings are going to be more cautious with Adrian Peterson given that he's their franchise player. _________________

Your marginalizations are more 'friendly' somehow  |

I guess so, but I make no apologies for them. If they are not appreciated, they can always be ignored. I am good at ignoring posts I disagree with for the most part or, in the case of a post from a rival fan, not even acknowledging it exists. It gets you in a lot less trouble and does not threaten to decrease your football IQ.
