Favre's right ankle will need surgery again in the off season. Just heard on a Canadian sports channel, looked on si online and nfl.com nothing said anywhere, anyone know if this is true? :shock:
The streaker
Green Bay’s trainers expect quarterback Brett Favre, despite his separated left shoulder and banged-up right arm, will be able to start Sunday against the Oakland Raiders.
If so, it would continue football’s ironman streak, giving Favre a preposterous 250 straight starts. But Favre knows off-season surgery awaits, should he opt for it.
The legend of Favre is about to grow, along with the number of surgeries he has had and will need.
Favre has already undergone two left ankle surgeries, one of which came after last season. Now he needs surgery on his right ankle, Favre confirmed last week while in Dallas for Thursday night’s game against the Cowboys. Favre has bone spurs in his right ankle that have become increasingly uncomfortable for him this season. He knows he needs the surgery, the question is when.
He plans to put it off until after the season, at the earliest. But it also adds to the Favre legend, with him accomplishing all he has this season with bone spurs in his right ankle and now all the aches he is going to have in his left shoulder and right arm.
We have the technology. We can rebuild him.
Ah Brett doesn't run anymore...
We have the technology. We can rebuild him.
But it was nice seeing a GB QB scrambling for a first down.
