Junior Galette signs with Redskins (updated)

Get your paints out everyone. We are going to be going Picasso on mredskins.

he's a good player and he's already out on the field. i'd assume he gets 8 sacks this year.

I gather from the article that his first diagnosis came when he was with the Saints. Since he was having all sorts of issues with the team, he didn't trust the surgery recommendation and sought a second opinion (Dr. Andrews). I guess from that perspective, I kinda see his point of not necessarily trusting a recommendation from a team he was having problems with.

As long as our medical staff is okay with him not having surgery, I guess I'm fine with it.

Maybe we should just leave the MD stuff up to the MD's.

Now why in the hell would we do that? I may not be a Dr. but I have seen an actor who played one on TV AND I have stayed at a Holiday Inn! Clearly, my opinion is relevant and due considerable weight.

[brief deja vu' moment as I recall saden1 lecturing me on how to read court opinions and the meaning of terms of art within the legal field - I still laugh]

SACRELIGE!

:devil:

If this guy amounts to anything for the Skins color me shocked.

You'll be shocked if a guy with 22 sacks the last 2 years is a good player here??

It's just...different here, MK
The Dan will not doubt bad karma him outta' here or force Gruden to make Robert play linebacker.
Just sayin'......

Bro you watch football games, right?

We agree with other authors that acute surgical repair ensures good to excellent results in up to 90% of the cases [12, 15] as compared to 70% when treated non-operatively. Although both methods restore a full range of motion and pain relief, surgery is essential for restoration of normal strength and greater recovery of peak torques and work performed, especially for the athlete [2, 3, 7].

The technique for surgical repair varies from suturing the tendon to the periosteum [12], to the remaining tendon [11] or clavi-pectoral fascia [10]. Osseous fixation can be achieved through drill holes [7, 12, 15], barbed staples [5] and anchors [13].

-----------------

Im just confused on the diff btw a torn pec muscle and torn pec tendon.

how would you repair a torn muscle? suture it together? what would hold it in place? imagine the immobolizer you would need ... or when they say "torn pec muscle" they really mean torn pec tendon?

either way, obviously not getting surgery = greater risk of aggravation.
