00:00The surgery for J.J. McCarthy, his torn meniscus,
00:04revealed that a repair was necessary,
00:07and he's out for the season.
00:08Yeah, okay, so the meniscus, because there's the,
00:11we talked about this yesterday.
00:13There's the snipping of the meniscus,
00:18and then there is something,
00:21and they don't know until they get in there.
00:23So if they think that they can basically snip it away,
00:25that's less intrusive, obviously, and less invasive,
00:29and the recovery is like four or five,
00:32but you'll be back soon.
00:33Which is what we assumed when it first happened.
00:35Maybe they did too, because they went in and learned.
00:38There you go.
00:38If it's the other thing, which evidently it is,
00:40then he's lost for the season.
00:41Doesn't that just show you, though,
00:43as I'm saying, doesn't that just show you
00:44how fragile sports fandom is?
00:48Like, you're excited.
00:49This could have been any of our teams,
00:50and it has been our teams.
00:51You saw what the Jets last year.
00:52I mean, Daniel Jones got hurt,
00:53but think about if you're a Vikings fan,
00:55and again, I'm not trying to empathize with Vikings fans.
00:57I'm just giving you an example of all sports fans.
00:59Yeah, it'll come back to us at some point.
01:00Yeah, like, it already has.
01:02It will at some point.
01:03You think, you're franchised in a spot.
01:05They trade up to get a guy
01:06that they believe is gonna be the next guy.
01:08You're excited about seeing him.
01:09He has a successful preseason first game.
01:12You know, throws a touchdown, whatever.
01:13People are excited about it.
01:14He gets hurt, and now he's done for the year.
01:17That's brutal sport.
01:18I mean, come on, dude.
01:20It's a brutal sport.
01:21That's why you get every penny you can as a football player.
01:22It's cruel just being a sports fan.
01:24Now they think he's gonna be back stronger
01:25and better than ever when he comes back,
01:28What else are they gonna say?
01:28He's gonna be weaker and, you know.
01:30I know.
01:31You know, more, push him around easier.
01:33Of course they're gonna say that.
