    What about that story is supposed to make us weep?

    You must be extra fragile.

    There's nothing new in the Canzano piece. We know there's no timetable and he's having tendinitis in his rehabbing knee. Sadly, Oden's our only real hope right now to make noise in the West with Nat's offense.

    I just wasted my time reading a full Canzano article. When will I ever learn.

    He didn't even make it easy for me with a lot of 1-sentence paragraphs.

    Memo to thread readers who are delaying reading the article: Not worth your time.

    A noticeably swollen knee seems to be more than simple "tendonitis", unless Greg has the largest tendons in the history of the human race.

    This from Canzano: "All along I figured they were keeping secrets, especially when it came to Oden. I realize now that they just didn’t know. And they still don’t."

    Wasn't that kind of obvious?

    Oh my, I never would have thought an athlete playing through the pain on knee tendonitis would have caused noticeable swelling to said knee the following morning. Who would have ever associated tendonitis with swelling of the tendons in that joint? Oh wait...

    Noticeably swollen means there is some soft tissue involved. I have tendonities in both knees from years of skiing. My knees don't noticeably swell, but they do hurt like hell. I guess I don't see how this news is a positive, but I know you have your grudge to uphold...

    No grudge, I was just making fun of the general concept of a swollen knee when you have a diagnosis of "swelled tendons in the knee".

    That said, on a serious note, you may be closer to the truth than not.

    Listening to Quick on the radio, he obviously is getting the company line whispered in his ear, and they are pushing him to say Joel won't be back until Thanksgiving and Greg not until December. So they're certainly playing this out like they are set to get another big man on the roster and not rush these guys back to playing on swollen knees.

    What a waste of time that was! It's funny how he only quotes or posts links from the 2 biggest jackoffs in our market...... the 2 assclowns that know the least....Canzano and Jaynes!

    Regardless, it just doesn't seem good for a guy his age to be having so many knee problems. It doesn't bode well...

    You're right, Greg's knees are fine.

    That's not the point. Of course they aren't fine. Haven't we finalized this yet? ANOTHER useless thread about it and the source is a joke.
