Thought I had read something about back spasms/tightness less than a week ago. Was that just conjecture?
Back spasms are no joke and the slightest thing can set it off.

Well his name is Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua. JTT are his initials. Don't know why he would be offended by that and I don't recall every seeing or hearing that.Crawfoso1973 said:I realize how my post might have seemed.Bearsalwayswin said:
Dude
I said "who is JTT" because some posters keep calling him JTT over and over and over again. It almost feels like on purpose. He is good being called Jon or EJ. For years he has said he doesn't like being called JTT for cultural reasons and that has been made clear on these boards. But the disrespect of his name continues. If anyone deserves our full reverence and respect it's EJ for all he's sacrificed for our program. OK end of rant
I did not realize that was occurring until this allusion!IowaBear said:
Actually let's hold off until I'm in Waco next. Planning on coming down for the AF game next fall
Right, but he has said multiple times he doesn't like being called JTT, and Fran Fraschilla has said on broadcasts multiple times over the last three years that Jon considers it a minimization of his family name to reduce it to two letters, and is therefore disrespectful to him and his family.JP1037 said:Well his name is Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua.

I asked a genuine question with no disrespect implied to Jon. I will call anyone I respect what they want. JTT is disrespectful but EJ is cool - seems very odd and I don't recall him or Fran saying that but I will take your word for it. I have nothing but respect for the man.Mitch Henessey said:Right, but he has said multiple times he doesn't like being called JTT, and Fran Fraschilla has said on broadcasts multiple times over the last three years that Jon considers it a minimization of his family name to reduce it to two letters, and is therefore disrespectful to him and his family.JP1037 said:Well his name is Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua.

We can continue to argue semantics on this board, or we can respect the man's wishes. I don't know why some people insist on dying on this hill.
In an interview a year or two ago he said where he is from, it is disrespectful not to use a person's family name.JP1037 said:Well his name is Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua. JTT are his initials.
