Ware To Have Surgery After Pro Bowl

[FONT=verdana,geneva]While there might be plenty of players who have little to no interest in playing in the Pro Bowl, Cowboys LB DeMarcus Ware isn't one of them.
[/FONT][FONT=verdana,geneva]Ware decided to put off a needed surgery on his left foot, so he could come down to Miami to be with his teammates, coaching staff and peers. Ware battled through a stress fracture in the same foot for most of the year. Next week, Ware will undergo the surgery that will shave down a bone spur that had developed over the course of the season.
[/FONT][FONT=verdana,geneva]“It’ll put me off my feet for about a week or so and then I’ll just wear a soft shoe,” Ware said. “It’s not really a big deal. But I wanted to come down here and be with my guys. That’s why I waited.”
[/FONT][FONT=verdana,geneva]Ware said the foot was the most bothersome of his injuries this season, which included a fracture in his wrist, an elbow injury and of course, the neck injury that forced him out of the Chargers game as he left the field on a stretcher.
[/FONT][FONT=verdana,geneva]All of that begged the question why Ware would even play in the game at all. [/FONT]
[FONT=verdana,geneva]“It’s just fun to be here and it’s an honor,” Ware said following Friday’s practice down here in Fort Lauderdale. “I think it’s a big deal to be here and I wanted to be a part of it.”
Ware has now made four straight Pro Bowls in his five-year career. Only two linebackers in club history have been to more Pro Bowls – Lee Roy Jordan (six) and Chuck Howley (five). [/FONT]
