News: Update: McCarthy out of surgery for acute appendicitis - Post 105

Get well Big Mike, but I think the Cowboys would be alright with Quinn coaching Sunday night if he needs to.

Thanks, but I really really do not want Schottenheimer calling plays.

Have Dak call his own plays like he did in the preseason finale for Will Grier.

Yeah why not? Certainly has the experience and has gotten to see how NOT to call plays up close and personal. He just has to do the opposite in most cases and he will be fine

What does Dr. Jerry say?

Just keep that souse away from the operating room. Pure oxygen and alcohol do not mix well

No JWB IV?

Is anyone concerned about preparation for this game with Big Mike absent? I’m sure the game plan is already prepared so at least he has in put there.

Not really. McCarthy is certainly involved but I think one of his strengths is delegation and collaboration. I think the rest of the staff has this handled well.

I agree with this......he may still coach but I don't see him being on the sideline.

 

[Diehardblues]

I had an emergency appendectomy and was out for over a week.

There is no way he should be on the sidelines that soon.

Gonna have an interim HC for that game. Stupid to do anything else

That's how they make them in Pittsburgh! Tough as nails!

To you 'Risen Star' - despite your contemptuous\ derisive \ ridiculing \ satrical comments about "America's Team"... no one at Cowboys Zone outdoes you (or 'WoodysGirl') in reporting pertinent news, information, and developments about the Dallas Cowboys...day-to-day, week-to-week, offseason and inseason.
My applauds to you.

Hoping for a successful surgery and complete recovery for Mr. McCarthy - first and foremost for his family and friends.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Spare me the fat jokes!! He's a great coach and we're lucky to have him.

Exactly, and he's in a rough situation. We should be supporting him through this.

 

[doomsday808]

He'll be on the sidelines or in the booth. Count on it! No way is he missing this game!

 

[Creeper]

I remember when it was a week in the hospital but today it is a tiny incision and they throw you out of the hospital the same day.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

I had an emergency appendectomy and was out for over a week.

I think it depends if it bursts or not, if he got it soon enough, he could be fine for the weekend

 

[TheCritic]

I'm sure this incident doesn't have anything to do with MM being obese, right? But it's time for BIIIIIIG Mike to start taking better care of himself. DQ has put on a few pounds too. Nothing worse than a fat coach bossing athletes around!!

 

[XXLMike]

Get well Big Mike

Coworker had this. Took a few days off work and came back with some restrictions on what he can do physically but otherwise was ok. If Mike is coaching on sunday he's a tough old bird, much respect.
