Green Bay — Rookie defensive end MikeNeal of the Green Bay Packers has a serious shoulder injury and probably will miss the rest of the season.

The Packers haven't made known the type or extent of Neal's injury, but sources said it didn't look good for him to return this season.

It's possible that Neal could be placed on injured reserve Saturday if the club, as expected, needs a roster spot in order to activate cornerback Al Harris from the physically unable to perform list.

Very frustrating. This team just has never been able to get their entire defense healthy this year. As the article said, it's a big dropoff from Neal to Wilson/Wynn/Montgomery.

Tarlam!

That's really too bad. This season started out with so much promise, now its gone to hell. I can't believe this injury bug.

I just came back from work (nightshift at hospital) and yet another injury.

I was hoping to see more from Neal this season. Not to be. Damn.

I feel like I'm in one of those softball games where the other team has strung together 18 straight 2 out hits and all I can do is stand there hoping to get a pop up hit to me.

The Curse Continues

NUTS; Being at the Game last week and hearing CJ Wilson (who was almost cut this year) being announced as a starter was demoralizing

For fuck's sake, can we get a new training staff yet?

I'm starting to think it would be easier to keep track of the ones we have left, since there seems to be fewer of them than those who are out.

I was just thinking that I'd like to see a list of those gone for the year. Here's what I know off the top of my head:

Grant
Harrell
Finley
D. Martin
Barnett
Burnett

And ow it's looking like Poppinga and Neal.

This is just stupid.

And am I missing anyone?

I knew removing/bringing in free weights would cause this problem. They should train with large baskets of laundry on their head.

This makes a lot of sense. The training staff will help toughen up Finley's meniscus and Neals' shoulder joint :roll:

Maybe not but its exactly what happened last time we had a string of uncontrollable injuries.

JSO keeps a nice running list of all the gory details for GB and the rest of the league:

http://jsonline.sportsdirectinc.com/football/nfl-injuries.aspx?page=/data/nfl/injury/injuries.html

You missed Blackmon, Josh Bell, and Johnny Jolly. As far as I'm concerned he should also be included. And don't forget Harris, Bigby, and Starks coming off PUP.

Never underestimate the power of proper conditioning and stretching.

Is it just me or is her crotch area vastly darker than the rest of her shorts? Looks like she peed her pants. If someone tried to stretch me like that, I know I'd pee my pants!

I've played in about five of those this fall. Unfortunately I can only play one Left-Center... :(

Too much weight training might not be good:

MM said today Neal and Poppinga will both go on IR. Jenkins will be questionable for this week.

Packers may have to try to find another D-Lineman. Raji cannot keep taking this many snaps all season.
