    I've got Dupuytrens. Don't believe it when they say it's not painful. Some days I can't even use my hands. I know John Elway did not say it's not painful. Thank you for that!

    Ty for sharing this!!!!
    I will share this with my doctors as they are trying to figure out what’s going on with my hands
    that sounds similar to what’s going on with mine. PS my great grandparents came from the border of Norway and Sweden :-)

      My hands have been hurting for almost 2 months now and no one has figured out what it is. I went to a hand specialist who simply said "I'm sorry there's nothing I can do for you". He didn't even properly examine me or do more tests. I don't see the rheumatologist until middle of November. It's been so hard without treatment and a diagnosis and it seems like it's getting worse. First the snapping started then every morning I wake up with a different pain in both hands. I'd love to chat with you about your issues as well. Maybe we can find a solution together!

    Only 1 QB in nfl history took there team to more SBs than Elway, he was so fun 2 watch, can throw a football through a brick wall

      To me, Elway is the real GOAT. I think Brady is having the GOAT career but I watched both and Elway was way better.

      You know, I used to feel that way too. I I was and still am kind of a Tim Tebow fanboy. However, the undeniable fact is that under no circumstances was he going to be a legitimate long-term quality solution as an NFL quarterback. I think that mr. Elway said everything he possibly could to support the fact that Tim Tebow is undoubtably a great individual in the ways that Tim Tebow truly is. Mr Elway just had a responsibility to try to put his football team in the best possible position for victory.
