It appears that Jake Long has a torn labrum that will require surgery. Long supposedly wants to play through it and get the surgery once the season ends, because it takes about 3-6 weeks to recover and then another 3-6 to get back to full strength.
Will he play?
Should he play?
From the sound of it, it looks like it'll be up to Jake. Which means, hell yea he'll play, because that big fucker is a warrior. Who's going to be the poor schmo to tell Jake Long he can't play? That dude will come back from that meeting with his ballsack sewed to his chin.
The War Hammer brushes off sprained knee ligaments and torn shoulder tissues like your everyday nicks and scrapes.
"My shoulder's glunohumeral joint has been torn clean from my clavicle?? Pfft... Bring me your finest pass rushers so that I might devour them with my thunderous pectoral muscles! The fighting heart of The War Hammer shall know no surrender! With my might, I smite thy anus!"
Or as Omar tells us: "Through the first 42 games of his NFL career, Long has played all but 18 of 2,838 snaps. That's a ridiculous 99.4 percent participation rate."
And even then, the team doctors had to keep Long out of the games by shooting him with a moose tranquilizer.
I once looked at a picture of a guy who kind of had a black eye from a fight he was in, and I didn't even throw up! True story! I'm tough! Call me, la....
