So it begins....Atkins out 6 weeks 

Post#1 » by Powder Blue » Thu Sep 25, 2008 1:42 am

Denver Nuggets guard Chucky Atkins will miss six weeks after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Wednesday.

My immediate reaction to the link was "You gotta be fu*c%in kidding".
Any bets on 6 weeks turning into all season?? I know he's not well loved around here but this means more AC. :banghead: :banghead:

Update: Here's a Dpost link

I think his career is over. It didn't say he twisted it or fell on it. It just said he felt pain while playing a pickup game which isn't good news.

I'm just soooo happy we went with this guy over Blake. Totally worth every penny.

Does this qualify for our annual start of the season injury? If it does, than he really is worth every penny.

You couldn't possibly be talking about Jamal Tinsley could you? No, it had to be timberlake.

Thank god there was no mention of Anthony Carter in that article. I'd have given up on the season if AC went down with a substantial injury.

His orlando ass needed to be in Denver spending some time with Mr. Hess. He will probably milk this thing all season long.

Na...He means Jason Taylor, D-End for the Redskins. Looks like he could be out a couple weeks but he could have lost his leg had he not had the surgery.


P.S. Great avatar MHizzle...Seen Katie Couric interview with Palin? Her Foreign Policy question had Palin doing circles.

Nuggets should just sign the tallest guy who can see the Pepsi Center from his house. That guy has got to be an all-star.
