It's called INACTIVE LIST, I could see how you guys would have no idea what I meant...very confusing
I can't understand how we were confused either, seeing how as all of your posts are crystal clear..
So Frank you REALLY didnt understand the IR reference or did you just feel because someone else said it, it was time to try and pile on with your superior NBA knowledge?
I would think that anyone making a DL or IR reference in any sport that a knowledgeable sports fan would understand why a team formal places a player on such a list.
The guys sitting next to me used the term "injured List" when referring to D Rose, do you think they are not on par with your NBA knowledge as well?
I don't think the injured list even exists anymore in the NBA. I haven't heard the term used in probably a decade. If a guy is hurt, he's just inactive. He doesn't dress, and he comes back when he's ready. In the past, guys would go on the Injured List, and you would have to sit a minimum of 5 games. It was always a dicey kind of call to put a guy who was day-to-day on the injured list because you didn't want him to be ready to come back, and not be able to due to the injured list rules. I'm pretty sure the NBA did away with it. You keep-on keepin-on though...
