last night...Outside the Lines was about sports hernias.  They followed a soccer player as he went to the doctor in Germany that supposedly has revolutionary way of doing the repair surgery.  He was walking around 7 hours after surgery and was back practicing full at 11 days. 

It's misleading though because there are many different degrees of a sports hernia, and that soccer player had a basic one.  Then they talked to the doctor that did DMac's surgery.  He kept referring to "insertions" onto the pubic bone.  I'm not sure how many there are and what exactly the insertion is, whether it's groin muscle or what, but DMac's doc said that Donovan had damages to 9 different insertions along with his sports hernia.  So, that German doctor's surgery wouldn't have applied to him apparantly.

Mo, the best way to explain it is there is an "origin" to the muscle and there is an "insertion". The origin is the end of the muscle thats more fixed in its attachment to the body. The more movable end is called insertion. I didnt see the taping, but Im guessing he must of been referring to damages along those movable parts or distal parts of his abdominal muscles.

Eagles | McNabb retains advertising spot

Susan Wyatt, of KING5.com, reports Philadelphia Eagles QB Donovan McNabb is back for his sixth season with the Campbell's Soup Company's "Mama's Boys" advertising campaign. He will once again be joined on the commercial by his mom, Wilma McNabb. The advertising is set to debut during the NFL's opening weekend beginning September 7.

Thank god.

Damn, Donnie Mac was hurting pretty bad. That sounds even worse then when they talked about the three tears he had repaired.

There was a piece Adam Schefter did with McNabb on Total Access last night... checking up on his health and a few questions about some WR.  Nothing groundbreaking at all... but the cornrows are gone.
