    Locking and holding that ourside knee spot - when I tore my meniscus, that is where it hurt and how it felt.

    Roy has had two meniscus tears on his right knee already. Once in his junior year @ UW, and in preseason last year (08). Although he has returned from the previous two injuries fairly quickly, I'd be worried about his long term effectiveness with a third surgery on that same knee. He took about two-three weeks last time.

    After watching the video I feel like Brandon is very worried, and thus so am I.

    Sweet Jeebuz. Didn't one of you promise to take care of our bad juju with some kind of exorcism earlier this season?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    So I take it that if it's any tear worse than a sprain, that's the effective end of Roy's season (barring some miracle deep run into the playoffs without him, lasting longer than 2-3 weeks)?

    Greg Oden had microfracture surgery for a torn meniscus, didn't he?

    I want to repeat this guy's post. I can't believe a Blazer fan would post this bullshit.

    Yes, it would mean arthroscopic surgery in all likelihood.

    No. Oden's surgery was because of damage to the cartilage in his knee. Still, a torn anything in his knee would effectively end Brandon's season.

    Meniscus is related to cartilage, though.

    The meniscus is different than articular cartilage.

    well the game is scaring the sh!t out of me... the news is RIGHT NOW "its a bone bruise" but more to come later

    Quick just says things dont sound good for brandons playoff chances... with lots of HINTING...

    Then Jay Allen who is the biggest homer of all... says hes getting a sense from interviews today that theres more to roys bruise then they they are telling the media. Nate didnt sound good either. Vance also feels that way.


    Ok... if there was ever a time to hear you call them idiots... this is it!
