So, I just found out via Adam Schefter on Twitter (Yes, I follow Adam Schefter of Twitter, thats not that lame is it? LOL) that Peyton underwent neck surgery yesterday in Chicago.
All I heard was the original report and then that the Colts said it wasnt serious and appearently the surgery was ment to relieve pain in his neck caused by a pinched nerve.
Im praying Peyt will recover just fine from the surgery.
Wonder why he went to Chicago for it, I would have been worried the surgeon was like some bitter bears fan
EDIT: Colts.com now has this on the site: This condition has existed intermittently for the past four years, but at no time did it interfere with his training, practice or playing regimen. While it never has affected Peyton’s activity on or off the field, the Colts’ medical staff, after post-playoff examination, thought it best to resolve the situation now. The procedure was performed by Dr. Richard Fessler in Chicago. Peyton had only an overnight stay in the hospital and is on his way home. All medical personnel involved believe the issue has been resolved. Peyton fully expects to participate in the Colts’ off-season program this Spring.

Okay, so they're jerks
for having him “bothered” off and on for four years and never mentioning it publicly, or they’re jerks for having him on the injury report weekly since high school without him missing a game until his knee is redecorated.
Right now (and I know I am being very petty) I am not a huge fan of either of our team’s injury reports. (then again, who the hell is?)
I hate Joe Namath. That's how long I've been a Colts fan.
I was just talking about the team warning peytonsthebest personally
you know, since she’s such a fan of Peyton?
Keep the faith!
Yep

It sucks how nobody ever checks there. But I like the link to the twitter page.
As far as the Chicago thing: A pinched nerve in the neck is an interventional radiology procedure and Northwestern has one of the best IR departments around.
sounds like a darned good guess
Dr. Blue is warming up her Googling fingers
How can you not love a team that does this?
Hmm, it was performed
by a neurosurgeon at Northwestern, so it’s a little more serious than what I first thought it was which was an IR procedure. Not that Northwestern doesn’t have a great neurosurgery program or anything, just that the procedure is a little more serious than what I first thought it was.
You're scaring me again

it could be
that because he could afford the best, he went to the best… even if it was more “routine”
My fear, though, is that they’ve had to do something to his spine, and that could limit his career by reducing the number of years he can play.

Comforting but
still scared the bejesus out of me, reading the initial headline.

Yeah
I freaked out when I first read about it
So what if Peyton didnt shake Brees' hand after the super bowl. Its better than what I would have done, which is steal the Lombardi trophy and run out of the stadium screaming "The Saints Bribed The Refs!!! Dirty Cheaters!!!"

Yours had a link!

I wanted to have it as a FanPost anyway, but didn’t have time to wax poetic about this

Thank you!
I just wanted to send the link to my friend and BAM the post disappeared, I thought the pills were playing with my head.

only in the evenings
not in the middle of the day, sandwiched between 5 meetings – ugh!

I'm a little worried at this news.
They better take good care of him. Or they’ll have to answer to me! LOL

Now THAT would be cool, in a weird sort of way.
Of course I don’t want him to be hurt, but it’s a nice fantasy.

Apparently Peyton already left the hospital,
so your warning is a little too late.

Pinched nerves suck
If I had the cash that Peyton has, I’d probably pay to have them surgically taken care of too.
No doubt.
That was on the Colts.
