Quote of the Day/Play of the Day

Quote:

Dr. David Lintner on Jeff Bagwell:

". . .extraordinarily tolerant of an astounding amount of pain."

Play:

Corpus Christi turned a 5-4-3 triple play (Ray Navarette to Brooks Conrad to Junior Zamora) in the third inning of the first game of their doubleheader vs. Midland Monday night. The Hooks would go on to win that game, 5 - 2.

thinks the capsular release procedure could very well end up getting called "Jeff Bagwell surgery" should the whole thing be successful.  

Wow!  Jeff as famous as Tommy John!

Won't happen
Even if it gets called that, it won't be happening 15-20 times a year to a variety of famous players, even across sports.  My understanding is that Tony Boselli underwent a similar procedure, and no one's rambling on about "Tony Boselli surgery".  It's just too unusual an injury and surgery...

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Only happened to a famous person once, but it's still called "Lou Gehrig's Disease."

I'm also thinking that Boselli didn't return to the game after the surgery, even though it di help him. . . .
