poidog22 Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I just heard on the 12:20 ESPN Radio SportsCenter update that Chad Lewis is going to have foot surgery on Wed. and will not play in the Super Bowl. I hate the Eagles as much as anyone here, but to contribute like he did in the NFC Championship game (2 rec. TD's) and not be able to play in the Super Bowl would suck beyond all belief. :doh: Lewis done for season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-Dog Night Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 "Lis Franc sprain of his left foot" I love how articles say this stuff expecting us all to know what that is. In case you were wondering: LISFRANC (Tarsal-Metatarsal) FRACTURE DISLOCATION The Lisfranc injury to the forefoot is thought to have originated with Napoleon's surgeon. During that time, if a rider was thrown from his horse and the foot was caught in the stirrups, the rider often suffered a severe fracture of multiple bones in the midfoot region with dislocation of the fragments. The resulting trauma often resulted in an amputation of the forefoot at a specific level called the Lisfranc joint, after the French surgeon who first noticed the pattern of this injury. Fortunately, although the injury is still called a Lisfranc injury, amputations are rarely done for this injury. In modern times, a Lisfranc injury indicates an injury to the normal alignment of the cuneiforms and metatarsal joints with the loss of their normal spatial relationships. The most common injury to the Lisfranc joint occurs at the joint involving the 1st and 2nd metatarsals and the medial cuneiform. If the ligaments between the medial and mid cuneiforms are disrupted, or between the 1st, 2nd mt and the medial cuneiform, then the bones separate and the normal alignment of the joints is lost. http://www.arthroscopy.com/sp09022.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In case you were wondering: for what it's worth, most Philly fans are familiar w/ this injury so that's prob. why it was written that way. Duce Staley had a Lis Franc injury that kept him out a year and it was another year after that before he finally got back to form.... not a very high success rate of coming back from this type of injury..... I think in Chad's case, with his age, this very well may be career ending. Sucks for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
