Plan on 6-8 weeks guys and his spleen will be swollen, He has to stay away form ANY contact sport and if he doesn't he could die. Not kidding. Its serious. Get well Sam, get your strength back and your weight. Life is more important then football.

I had a bad case back in my 20s.
Led to some hepatitis , spleen enlarged
I felt fucked up for 2-3 months and not right for a year
But I only missed one Jet home game, 85 the Bears ,December and it was too cold so my Mom went in my place !!!!
we lost 19-6
Not bad against that team!

Bigmoe, you can probably go out and do all the dirty deeds that you can get away with for the rest of your life and still end up in Heaven because after going to all those Jets games for all those years, you have clearly already been living in hell for a long damn time

when I was young, I had a record that said it had mono right on it and it played every day just fine. Eventually I replaced it with a cd

My wife says you're right. She was an NP in the ICU and now directer of Quality at a hospital

Yea , I thought it was my Jet purgatory but living hell is more like it

Including the 70's decade didn't get much worse than that ( but we're gettin close ), if you were around then

I have a hard time deciding who I hate more. Jets or Cheatahs.

heck, if you go back to Belichick second year, there were more former Jet coaches and players on the cheetahs then cheata h players. So they are almost the same team anyway. Just that one wins and one loses

and might be the only way anyone on the Jets ever gets a superbowl ring is after they sell their soul to belichick, which happens a lot

Being a Jets fan has gotta be one of the hardest things there is as a sports fan of any sports. Let’s think about it. The Jets aren’t just horrible like some other franchises, like the Browns or whomever may fit in this mode. The Browns finally have some promise but it’s taken then a decade or more to get there. So their fans had no choice but to settle in on that fact all this time and except it. The Raiders, Buccaneers, Padres, Mets, Wizards, Knicks and Clippers would some other teams I guessing fits this mode.

The Jets are the team that fouls you most, if not every year that gives you hope most, if not every year. They’ve even made the playoffs about 5-6 times and two AFC championship games over the past 10-15 years. This shit is torture but we just keep coming back for more. I’ve been doing this with this damn team since 1982 and there are MILLIONS of fans that have been doing it longer. It must be something in the water we Jets fan drink or something that makes us so DAMN stupid that we keep coming back for more.

OK so listening to all of the sports casters, sports journalist and medical experts and from what I’ve been reading this may be more than just the 3 to 4 week thing with Sam. They are saying that besides the recovery of this, he will also need time to regain his strength and weight back. In which he can lose anywhere between 10 to 20 pounds. So this might actually end up being a 6 to 8 week process, if he’s going to actually heal correctly and come back 100%. Fun times ahead huh!!!

OK, let me be the barer of possibly bad news. People with mono take 2 to 4 weeks, on average, for their symptoms to subside. Sam being a well conditioned athlete might fall into the 2 week group. Then it's a matter of how long it takes him to get back in shape. That's the good news. Now for the bad. The medical staff has to, for the benefit for the team, address the contagious aspect of the disease which is typically 3 months and often is up to 18 months after his symptoms have dissipated. I'm not guessing here gang. This is a medical reality, and yes, I have the background to know. So...........when will he be allowed to take the field again ? It could be a very long time. Just be prepared to support Trevor for awhile and cross your fingers a lot.

Francesca had a doctor on WFAN. I caught it in the middle, but the doctor said that because of the spleen issue and contact, especially with the Jets offensive offensive line(I added that part), the doctor said it could be really dangerous for him to come back too soon. He said if Sam were his son, that he wouldn't let him come back this season

That's what I'm trying to prepare all you guys for. Between the health risk and the possibility of spreading the ailment through the whole team this could be a season ending ailment. Not a very bright outlook but one that needs to be considered.
