Yeah it's because you hear about Kirk Presley throwing 150 pitches in the state championship game in high school or something and then he has a UCL tear and then people point back to that one moment to explain it. Not that I would recommend throwing that many pitches but it's not likely that ONE game that did it.
A rubber band is a good way to put it. Ligaments don't have a ton of elasticity in them. And then in the elbow they're relatively small. But that's where a lot of the stress goes.
