    Ouch!

    Get well soon, Wild One!

    (He's going to trip when he comes out of anesthesia, lol)

    Hey, maybe he can work on his shot and take over for Brandon next fall. ;)

    Seriously, though, good luck, Mike. Not a fun surgery, but I hope it makes it easier for him to get around.

    Given the Wild One's love of the sauce I doubt they had to give him too much anesthesia...

    They've refined that surgery so much, it's insane. Used to be this long arduous recovery (back when my dad had his done), but now-a-days, it's about 1/4 the recovery/physical therapy time. He may be better in time to play tennis in August/September. Truly amazing.
