Knights who say, "Knee!"

Greetings, Brewers!

Since many of you have noticed my lack of game participation, I thought I'd give you my latest injury update. My calf strain is more or less healed, but the overall lack of activity during rehab (coupled with a return to tennis too soon) has made my pre-existing "Chondromalacia Patella" issue even worse. I've had this knee issue for years, and it's only now occurring to me that I might need to be fitted for orthotics and follow through with some physical therapy. I've got some arthritis, and small bone spur, and "fraying" of soft tissues in my right knee, so I'm going to remain on the DL for at least another month. I asked the doctor if I could have my digital x-ray sent to the MB blog, but he wasn't into that idea -- something about patient confidentiality... So, for those of you interested, arthritis and frayed tissue look like a fuzzy glob on top of a normal bone. Pretty cool.

Looking forward to some quality rehab so that I might return with a vengeance next season! In the meantime, I anticipate that the rest of you will have a fantastic comeback game next Tuesday. Go Brewers!
