He's really not that important to the overall success of the team that you would have him in the lineup if he was hurting to the point where he can't even throw a punch or grab a guy. If he's hurt that much I would hope the coach is smart enough to rest him in the press box.

Possible.
But then you'd think he's get a slight step back with the all star break, not lose another one.
If the reason he wasn't involved is either not wanting to, or not wanting to with former teammates ... I'm as pissed as anyone. But since a lot is eroding I wonder if there's something else going on.
