[CBFF] Bradley to miss start of camp

[Steve Behrens]

This isn't 'most things', this is the NFL where surguries like this are
realitively common place, and where players can lose playing time, money,
and careers for not getting physical problems corrected in a timely manner,
not to mention the impact to the team, their practices and everything else
that that applies to. Trying to equate this to Mr Joe Blow wondering how
long he can go without having that rotator cuff surgery before it starts to
affect his UPS delivery job is laughable.  Could it (the injury) have
occurred just recently? Possibly, but I'm done constantly giving these
athletes the benifit of the doubt.  IMHO, odds are high that this occurred
during last years season, and he had plenty of time to have it taken care
of, but surgery would have cut in to his leasure time.

*THAT* is much closer to the truth, AFAIC.
