Aside from Tony's alleged lawsuit against the club location, where he was injured. I wonder if the Drake and Chris Brown camps could potentially be liable?

SPURS may get ready to tank
Hope he gets well soon
Not bad if he miss the Olympics because Spurs didn't allow him to play after this. . It will be great the rest in the summer.
just spray some windex on it
Don't know if anyone read this?
Facebook - Greg Simmons: Tony Parker is reporting on his website that his eye injury is much worse than he first thought after he was hit by flying glass in a bar brawl in NY. He had to have emergency surgery last Sunday to remove a shard of glass that had penetrated his left eye. And that the Spurs are very worried. He is flying home on July 5 to be examined by specialists and Spurs doctors.
Tony's fucking ego has grown outta control.
Not the first time a Spur has been involved in a NYC celebrity brawl. This sort of reminds me of the time "Spurs legend" Walter Berry was with Mike Tyson when he got in a street brawl with Mitch Blood Green in NYC.
But back on topic, no need to blame Tony for what happened. It sounds like he didn't feel any pain the next day except for complete embarassment and got on the plane to get out of town as fast as possible. Who can blame him for that? I think it's still 50/50 if this is going to be a serious injury for Tony. Part of me thinks it's to help his godzilla lawsuit. Part of me thinks its actually real. We might not ever know. So he'll probably have to wear goggles - not the biggest deal in the world.
:lol @ people blaming Tony Parker for going out to a club in his free time. God forbid he has a life, he should definately expect flying bottles in his eye at such an event.
Some of you people are pretty stupid.
Fuck. Parker might want to amend that lawsuit.
20 mil may not be enough.
Just as the Parker suing the club gets the club to sue Drake, the Spurs and the Spurs insurer can join in. It could be Drake pays club which pays Parker who pays Spurs which pays Spurs insurer.
I hope he gets well. I've first hand experience with top ophthalmologists in the country due to a close family member, and they're actually in Boston and Philadelphia (Will's Eye being among the top 3 eye hospitals in the world).
I've been through full blown eye surgery with this person a couple of times, and recovery time really depends on what kind of surgery he has. For example, DSEK type of surgery normally takes 4+ months to get vision back to 20-40, 20-50 levels, and a full year or two to actually get back to normal vision if the body doesn't reject the implant.
Some other surgeries instead have surprisingly quick recovery times (4-5 days).
So it's really difficult to speculate on that without really knowing what he has.
Parker made a press conference today and his eye looked fine. Even if he was cautious, he was too somewhat confident that he would be cleared to play in NY on July 5th. Recovery seems to go well.
I had cataracts removed from both eyes(one at a time). I went on Monday morning, took about 15 minutes to get prepped and about 8 mins to do the surgury, then 15 mins "recovery" time. I wore a patch over my eye until Wednesday. Took off the patch read 20/20 for 1st time in 35 years.
The eye heals faster than much of the rest of the body. Think about getting a grain of sand or dirt in your eyes, it washes it out on its' own. Scratching the cornea is not that bad, it is the penetration of the eye that has done the damage to TP.
Before we start worrying about the damage, let's get TP back here and let one of our on doctors give us the skinny on how bad it is.
Great news, hope he recovers soon. There's nothing wrong with clubbing in the off-season, even till 4 am or so, but hanging-out with people that get him into those situations . . . no comments. Could still make the headlines anyway.
lmao at people calling parker a pussy over the lawsuit (in some other threads). that glass shard was probably centimeters away from ending his basketball career. he might be milking it in the press to shore up his settlement but that was serious injury and could have destroyed his future and future NBA contracts.
Did yahoo rip off the OP?

A thug with talent, signing or otherwise, is still a thug. Man Chris brown needs his head checked.
What was Tony doing hanging with a chode like Chris Brown anyway. That guy is a p.o.s. human being, and an even worse rapper
I hope Tony doesn't want to be a pirate.
I thought it would be a more serious injury but the initial reports said he was fine. Now hearing that he almost lost his eye is scary shit.
He will have to amend his "teardrop" shot.
Dear Professional Athlete,
Stay the F#ck away from night clubs, rappers and [email protected] thugs who carry guns every where they go.
Good news. Tony wants to play and I hope he canQuote:

That really sucks man. The eye does heal fast, but it's also extremely sensitive and is the most easily damaged part of the body. Small debris carried by the wind, the wrong chemical, or rubbing it the wrong way can severely damage it. . .it's something most people ignore, but everyone really should be be as careful as possible when it comes to protecting their eyes.Quote:

Shit was scary though.
^ Our team has been a pretender for the last 4 years or so, the contending days have been long gone, time to start rebuilding...or stick with this consistent mediocrity in the playoffs?
This lack of young athletic talent (Leonard excluded) has finally caught up with the Spurs & it's damn time for them to address it.
