    Tretter Out "Multiple Weeks"

    Green Bay --- Running highlights from Mike McCarthy's Sunday news conference...

    On injuries... Brad Jones had a quad; B.J. Raji had significant bicep injury; JC Tretter had a significant knee injury and will be out multiple weeks. ...Once the one's got out of the game, knee started bothering him. Bothered him at halftime.

    On if Tretter is surgical... Talking to staff, more testing ahead. Don't have all the answers left.

    On the plan at center... Way you deal with injuries will never change. Injuries are a personal issue. Feel bad for the individual. Seeing him on crutches, think of him coming in back in February. ...Hard part about it, what individual has to go through. This is the way the NFL is. Injuries part of our game. Unfortunate. Will not stop us.

    On if temorary IR a possibility... JC not enough information; B.J. would say no.
    Well, I hope his estimate on Tretter is a lot more accurate than his initial guess on Raji.

    Good grief. And he was looking very good.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

      Yikes. So Linsley will be starting. I wonder if this now gets Garth Gerhart on the roster, or if T.J. Lang would be the backup Center.

          Not good. The injuries to Abbrederis and Barclay sucked but those to Raji and Tretter seem as if they might prompt personnel decisions that result in cutting good players to keep lesser players at positions of need...

              Significant? Son of in GB speak that means they amputated.
              Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

                Yep. Might not be season-ending, but probably surgery. I think we have have found our IR-Designated For Return candidate.

                  I hope you're right. I hope Linsley pans out so they don't have to play musical chairs with the line.

                    I really like Linsley, but didn't want to see him starting this way.

                          MM said he thinks Tretter hurt the knee on the first series. He went on to play the whole 1st half. Are players told to report injuries? Are players expected to play through an injury in a meaningless preseason game? Just wondering.

                              Pro football kinda sucks. The CONSTANT orthopedic surgery stories get old.
