My T&R

As Brandon Webb continues his three-city tour of orthopedic surgeons, the details on the severity of his shoulder injury remain sketchy. But it appears Webb could be facing surgery to repair a torn labrum, a procedure with a reputation as daunting as any in baseball. Although it has long been considered an injury from which few pitchers recover, medical advancements have made torn labrums less of a career killer. But for every Curt Schilling and Chris Carpenter - pitchers who had the procedure and made it back to full strength - there are dozens of others whose careers were derailed. Guys like Mark Mulder, Pedro Martinez and Jason Schmidt.

Tumbleweeds would imply a dry area with windblown dust. Not so much around here.

Thats what I gathered from some of the comments on here. Being fairly new around here, I am not familiar with all the players and the history that goes with them.

The attacks over there seem way too personal.

Well, it took me all weekend and part of yesterday, but I finally managed to get some comments deleted over on the Nascar thread.

I feel like I belong now:))
