Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
Well there it is in writing as well I heard it on the new Redskins radio here in Richmond Va. and Larry Michael reported surgery, but did not know how long he would be out. A buddy of mine called and told me after he saw it flash across the screen on ESPN.

Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
So, skins052 did Springs have three surgeries or one?

Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
I'm glad it's only a minor procedure and that he'll be back by the start of the regular season.

Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
Haha...so with the way you're doing the math, i.e. 3x. If Springs is down for 2 wks that's like 6 weeks in your world.

Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
I'm going with that the sky really is falling, and you can bet I will have it on my resume if I ever go to sports reporting because I can gaurantee this is exclusive news that you can only get from skins052bgr8. Look for it on ESPN tonight.

Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
Quote:
A groin strain is a stretch, tear, or complete rupture of the muscle called the adductor longus, which runs from the pubic bone to the inside of the thigh bone. Symptoms include stabbing pain, bruising, swelling, and the inability to draw your leg inward. Groin strains recur often if they never fully heal. Minor strains can be treated with rest, ice, compression, and elevation, a regimen known as RICE. More serious strains call for both RICE and medical care. Recovery time ranges from 2 to 8 weeks, depending on the severity of the injury. |

Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
With it being so hard to find a link, it may have to do with Larry Michael pushing and marketing the radio site today hard as the place to get all the late breaking news before it is posted. I know he said that several times when talking about. He was really hyping this news as exclusive to Redskins Radio and the place to tune in to get information on the skins.

Re: Shawn Springs to have surgery
What is really concerning is the recovery time. Im fine with 3-4 weeks, similar to Hall if Springs were a kicker, but wouldn't you think a corner would need more time to recover given the strain his legs are under?
