Brilliant plan!!!... Never quite heard of a surgery improving quickness or athleticism, but Im sure they've tested the theory on rats and apes....Where do I sign... signed Thabeet
yao's main surgery- that ended his career_ was not an ankle but navicular stress fracture. couple o bones under the ankle and on top of the foot.
When Yao was considering the surgery he spoke to Patterson about the recovery process etc, because he had it in College. I recall it from some Chronicle articles. DD
Ha, I bet he'd like to have this tweet back, lol: pdpatt Patrick Patterson #nw Terra Nova. someone please tell me why they went back in time before the dinosaurs were instinct and the ice age came.
I'm sure he's not that stupid, probably just got typing too fast. But it was still funny =) It reminded me of when Avery Johnson was a player and did an interview one time: "I school to the left, I school to the right... Fool, I'm amphibious!"
