    Chuck Hayes underwent surgery today (Thursday) for a broken nose incurred during a workout this afternoon. He will be out 4 to 6 weeks. Could be back in time for opening of training camp Sept. 29, or as late as the start of preseason games on Oct.7.
    Seeing as how Chuck is in a fight for playing time with Scola, Artest, Landry, and Dorsey, I can't imagine that he won't be there for the opening of training camp. We've all seen guys have their nose put back in place by the trainer, and then go right back in the game.
    Still, I hope this isn't a omen for an injury-riddled season. Injuries are the only thing that can derail this team.

    Homie, you're lost. Go up to "Houston Rockets 2008: Game Action & Roster Moves" and write this stuff up there.

    Tell me when you're home!

    Haha, I'm sorry to say this but you deserved it. Only rookies do that mistake you just did. Welcome to the club, homie.

    This club (rookies) stinks. I didn't think so before, but I didn't know any better. After you've tasted the good life...

    See, I was a member and had permission to start a new thread. The problem was, I didn't know where to do it. The only place I could find was in "unsorted threads." So, that's where I put it. It was an honest mistake.

    By the way, how could all my posts in this thread be number 32? I'm not only a rookie, but I'm a rookie in limbo> :eek:

    I don't know if you were serious those last three posts, but it was amusing.

    I wish I could rate this thread five stars. A person just counting his posts after screwing up. Good stuff.

    Second injury of the pre pre-season - Shane. Supposedly will be back for the regular season, but nobody can guarantee that. Not with plantar faciitis, or whatever inflamation he has in his foot. Although, knowing Shane, he wil play through it. Not to mention Stevie, Rafer, and T-mac all recovering from surgery, and Landry with questionable knees. Mutombo one year from Medicare. Hopefully, they can all be well at the end of the season, but so far it looks pretty shakey.

    Third problem of the pre pre-season. Tracy has "arthritis" in his left shoulder recently operated on. He say he plans to have another operation next off-season. Makes you wonder how he could develop arthritis in the 4 months since his last operation. And what kind of surgery do they plan to do. Surely, they would have cleaned out his shoulder during his last repair if it was necessary. Strange. :confused:

    By strange, I mean, why should an athlete need a second operation on the same shoulder 4 months after the first, when there was no new injury.
