    I'm sure the x-ray machine at Staples would be able to get every view possible

    Barrett already has a new blog up and he seems to downplay the injury, I'm not sure if that is good news or bad news.

    How long does it take a hairline fracture to heal? Wasn't that what took out Yao for the season?

    Whatever happened, it wasn't good that he was trying to play on it.

    Man I feel bad for Greg. He wants to play so bad but shit happens.

    The next time Barrett puts a negative spin on something will be the first time. I'm not believing anything until there's a definitive answer.

    Don't get me wrong. I love MB, but he's like Al-Jazeera when it comes to the Blazers.

    Fuck, I just saw the replay on TNT. That was a nasty roll. He was lucky that ankle didn't snap.

    The thing is, we don't need another lotto pick, we needed Greg...earlier time than usual to pull a raef + expiring for stud deal?

    I just don't see how he could break a bone with the injury TNT keeps showing. If he broke a bone on a hyper-flexed ankle injury, well, let's not go there.

    WIth that kind of weight coming down on that ankle like that, it will be a long-term injury. Either it is a severe sprain that will sideline him for the year, or it's a really bead sprain that will linger all season long.

    They just interviewed GO and he didn't hear or feel anything pop. That's good news.

    Ugh, let's hope not.

    I've had such a bad day today, and I was really looking forward to the season opener today. Now this shit happens. I'm pissed and depressed.

    Would you hear a hairline fracture? Especially in that kind of environment? When was this interview?

    He wouldn't have been able to keep playing on it. I've had a severe mid-foot sprain before; the top of your foot hurts like hell and swells like a water balloon and you can't do much for a few weeks, then mine got better fairly rapidly.

    Agreed.... sometimes I can't stand MB because everything is always goody goody, best case scenario or some good news has to come out of everything..

    UGH I'm so frustrated
