And thats exactly why I would rather have him play so he could suffer more.

I think our new turf has changed the crown of the field. I have heard we are considering changing the time zone to Pacific just for that weekend.

121394. Manningham walking
by Jensen35, 10/13/06 11:17 ET Manningham has already been seen walking without crutches or much, if any, limp. Sounds like everything went as well as we could have hoped.

A solid source from Youngstown are says:

Manningham's injury is a bit more serious than what Michigan folks are leading people to believe. The Detroit papers stated that Manningham was supposed to start rehab running this week, but I am hearing that the "running" is more like "jogging" than "running." I have no idea how many filters this info passed through before it got to me. Anyhow, Patterson had a strain, and he will be playing this weekend (probably light duty, but playing nonetheless). Manningham was injured the same weekend if I am not mistaken, and he is only starting to do rehab running whatever the hell that means.

Take from it what you will, but this source is usually spot-on...

Clarett's lingering inury was his shoulder stinger. His scoped knee held up pretty well, and he played only a week or so after the surgery IIRC...

I meant is he your source, Mili? Or should I call you Mr. Such and Such?

My source is a highly-respected member who no longer posts here by his choice...key words are highly-respected. Just passing on info from a very good source.

Trust this guy...

But he's not solid...at least he wasn't when at the pro camps.

Lucasville and Youngstown often get confused.

Saw this on another board. I don't know what kind of credibility the source has, so take it for what's it's worth. It does jive with what Mili's source is saying.

MM had a meniscus tear and a grade 2 MCL, so I would assume from my years in ortho that his recovery time is in the 4-6 week range. Generally with that type of injury, you're able to start running after 7-10 days, but even though he can run, it's VERY doubtful that he could make cuts or play anything more than a few snaps at this point.

So, if he had surgery on the 10th, he would have probably started running this past weekend and a likely timeframe for his return would be between the 7th to 18th of November although it generally takes 8-12 weeks to get up back to 100%. Despite what MM and Michigan will say in the upcoming weeks, Mario will at best probably be no better than 85-90% for "The Game".

That's hard to believe. From what I hear, people are much more likely to wear bullet-proof vests in Youngstown.
