OL Bates had stem cell treatments in Panama in September!

What the hell? Traded a 5th round pick for a guy with a shoulder like that? Was Jerry Angelo doing the medical exam?

I feel like Bates has become this mythological creature like Bigfoot. Rumored to exist, but only seen rarely on blurry camera footage.

Bates is vying for the Harvey Unga award.

But Harris never did the pixie dust stem cell Panama thing. This will heal him forever and add 23" to his arm length. Everything is good. The players are taking up a collection and are planning to fly Flus down to Panama and get a stem cell injection into his brain. They are hoping for better and faster game time decisions. (and of course longer arms)

Man oh man, Ryan Poles work product on the OL has been a series of CFs. Virtually nothing he's done has worked out well.

but, but he's been topped off with the Panamanian stem cells.  But yeah, in hindsight, he should have just pigged out on Garza donuts instead (they're #1 in nutrition you know).
