Doctors do their jobs, regardless of what team they root for.

I don't know... I could totally see Jimcs leaving someone like Shaq completely toothless, or secretly engraving a Spurs emblem on one of his molars.... if given the opportunity.

:lol

Knees are knees.
Ankles are ankles.

Vail, Colorado has top knotch knee specialists.

Not as many ankle injuries on the slopes.

If he was getting discs in his neck fused the best guy for that is in San Antonio, last I heard. If it bothers you that much he could have that done instead of having his ankle worked on.

We would have to trade Manu + half of our team to make salaries match.

Hey Padron, just be glad he doesn't have to wait in line over at the Wilford Hall or VA, man.

because it's fun to have pinpoint surgery with the thought of a earthquake at any moment.

Loving Father, I entrust myself to your care this day; guide with wisdom and skill the minds and hands of the medical people who minister in your Name, and grant that every cause of illness be removed, I may be restored to soundness of health and learn to live in more perfect harmony with you and with those around me. Through Jesus Christ. Amen.

Into your hands, I commend my body and my soul. Amen.

The one place that comes to mind for these types of sports injuries is the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles. They are top shelf and Dr. Frank Jobe is legendary.

Oh, Gee!!

You are correct... I think the Doctor you are talking about is Dr. Youngblood. This Doctor has operated on countless WWE wrestlers, NFL players, and countless athletes from all over the world. I think he has been featured on TV programs such as NAT Geo and is the world leading expert on Spinal Disk surgery. Dude is old too, like in his 70's or 80's.

She doesn't need to smoke anything, spurschick is the High Priestess of The Church Of Manu. She simply got things going for Manu's surgery today.

I had 2 herniated cervical discs from sports injuries that he repaired with a fusion. He's good. Of course, the Lord took care of the of the healing process.

Anyways, I'm glad Manu's surgery is done and the healing can begin in earnest.

The surgery was performed in Los Angeles by Dr. Richard Ferkel.

ok, I know it's not correct to make fun about the names of some people, but for a German speaking person a Doktor named Ferkel is either funny or scaring. or both.
