Kreutz to have surgery, Bears to resign Pisa

OBILE, Ala. -- Bears center Olin Kreutz will have surgery Thursday to repair an ailing Achilles tendon.

The six-time Pro Bowler, who was an All Pro in 2006, is expected to need four to six months to recover and should return in time for training camp.

The Bears captain missed part of camp in 2008 because of the injury, which has made it difficult for Kreutz to push off and get leverage. Following surgery, he is expected to return to form, stronger and better.

While questions about Kreutz's future with team surfaced during a disappointing 2009 season, he is singed through 2010. New offensive line coach Mike Tice has raved about Kreutz as the anchor of the offensive line.

No deal in place yet, but sources say with confidence that #Bears will re-sign LB Pisa Tinoisamoa, a wise move by club.

:rockon:


Any more good news and I'll just wet myself. :oops:

My 2 cents? Olin has this surgery now because he was gonna get cut in 30 days. I'm OK with this because I'm rooting for Beekman to take over at center anyway. Olin is done IMO

Also, resigning Pisa means we are shipping out another LB.

Damn it Sportsworld, I was trying to figure out why this was great news and read the article carefully again.

Only to realize you were sarcastic. :mad:

Think again, why are our cheap owenrs gonna bring in a new staff for a lockout in 2011.

709 days! (Jan 9, 2012 sounds reasonable, that would be around the last week) Maybe as soon as January 2nd though, only 702 days!
