Romo Considering Surgery on Collarbone to Prevent Future Injury

[IAmLegend]

Do it, Tony.

 

[Alexander]

Good. He needs to do this.

That's what happened with Luke Skywalker and he eventually went to the dark side. We are still waiting to see if he ever came back...

Luke never went to the dark side. Lol what are you on?

How are you sure?

 

[JBS]

Probably should just insert these plates on his whole body...if you are going to do it, do it right

I was thinking the same. Insert steel rods / plates wherever the possibility of injury exists.

Let's make Romo the $6,000,000 man.

A la Gronkowski. Man is like the terminator now

I don't want to play spoiler for the movie. Lol. People here haven't seen it.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

How about not landing on that side of the collarbone that you break over and over Tony.

The heck are you talking about? Luke never went to the dark side.

Do it, Tony.

He's only broken it twice.

Internal fixation will not prevent fractures when a 300# DL dude lands forcefully on the player with his upper body perpendicular to the ground.

The non-union second injury this year has probably now resulted in a bit of displacement that provided less that ideal contact and alignment.

Should have probably had the surgery in October.

Doc - does this mean it will be always weaker? If so wouldn't the plate at least help with displacement and alignment sans the 300 pound dude falling on it?

Return of the Jedi: He defeated Vader, go back and watch those scenes. He ultimately stopped in Vader's destruction but had the damage already been done to that point?

Was just thinking that...might as well have....full skeletal body replacement...Tony Terminator, or Robo Tony....broken bones an issue with him, no soft tissues. well the herniated disk, but if better bones, it may not have happened....

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Just plate it all Tony. Become Plate Man.

Not to hijack the thread, but him getting the best of his father doesn't mean he went to the dark side. The emperor was purposely pushing his buttons as the entire point was for him to replace his father and stand alongside him by fueling his anger/rage at the hopelessness of the situation. Luke refused to give in which is why he was electrocuted numerous times to the point of near death prior to Vader pitching Palpatine over the side.

Though it's possible that Luke post-episode 6 and into these new movies has an ulterior motive, it's highly unlikely as the story canon would suggest otherwise.

I'm assuming this is snark.

That's speculation. He never went to the dark side. He fully says "I am a jedi, like my father before me." I'd suggest watching the new movie.

Are we counting his stint with 2 Live Crew?
