Perhaps you don't remember the timeline to all of this. He had his "cyst" surgery in April of 2013 AFTER signing his new deal. Then in the Washington game of week 16 is when he went down with his herniated disk. Okay, herniated disks don't just suddenly happen, they start small and get worse over time. So it's definitely safe to say it was related to the "cyst" surgery in the exact same spot in his back, (the cyst was a Synovial discal cyst, not just dermal, the L4-L5 area) and the surrounding tissues. You think it's just a coincidence? Later on it was revealed, it wasn't one. And herniation of the affected disk is a common next phase of the inflammation that caused the cyst in the first place.
Did you forget he also missed the entire minicamp and OTAs of 2013, recovering from this "minor cyst surgery?" Doesn't sound all that minor when you remember that.
You simply don't know that you don't know. That's part of the Dunning–Kruger effect by the way. But your tendency to just believe this team when they say shit is "minor" and have no skepticism at all for anything else they say is something else entirely. It's faith..... Faith in Jerry and Ginger... You're a religious zealot where the Cowboys is concerned.
