Could Barbaro's early break have contributed to his fracture in his second gate break?

no i dont think so but it could have made his front leg sore so he was putting more weight on his back legs or trying to keep weight off it or someting and put more pressure on his hind legs witch he uses to push himself off with

no cuz he injured himself

In my opinion he would be devastated. He has no martial arts experience and his neck injuries would be problematic.  UFC is not scripted as pro wrestling is, and he would not have any protection against breaking his neck again.

Absolutely not, his foot is fractured

It depends on how severe the sprain is. Some sprains can be worse than a broken bone, healing wise. He's probably going to have to baby it for a while!

He broke his leg 2 times, One while playing for Liverpool and the other while playing for the French National Team\nhttp://video.yahoo.com/video/play?ei=UTF-8&p=cisse+break+leg&b=0&oid=2b7ff1c85f4e1f7e&rurl=grouper.com&vdone=http%3A%2F%2Fvideo.yahoo.com%2Fvideo%2Fsearch%3Fei%3DUTF-8%26p%3Dcisse%2Bbreak%2Bleg&vback=Results\nIf this one works good, If not just say so and i will try to find another\n\nHere is a picture of it\nhttp://www.l22l.com/l22l-up-4/7c90231acf.jpg\nI really feel sorry for this guy he almost lost his leg from the knee down :( when he broke it while playing for Liverpool, And now this

Nope.\n\nThis horse is now retired to stud - he is lucky they can mend his leg and use him for breeding.\n\nHortio Nelson was not so lucky at the English Derby this year.\nHe breeding line was one of the best, ran really well. but he broke his leg in two places, cannon bone and seasmoid bone and dislocated another joint.  They had to put him down.\n\nYet another good horse injured in this so called sport - and only three years old!!  They say the jockey wanted to pull him out at the start as he didnot feel right.  The trainer raced him and looked what happened.\n\nGood luck to you barbaro in your forthcoming stud duties, at least you will still be alive!!

You COULD say that Afleet Alex was injured in that tangle, but we could never prove it.  Other than that, probably that 1993 race with Union City was the only serious injury.\n\nI'm sure there were many horses that were injured in the Preakness, like Sweetnorthernsaint's hoof injury, but it's those minor injuries that we all forget.  It's the Union Citys and the Barbaros that are etched in our minds.

Yes, it will just take a little while because he had to have microfracture surgery in his left knee, which is very difficult to recover from. You lose like half your strength, and since the stuff around there doesn't grow back naturally they had to drill a hole in his knee bone, alowing the blood to flow in and form scar tissue. He'll probably be back later in the season, but I don't think he'll ever be the same.

I'm sorry that I didn't see your other question.  I guess I'm coming in during the middle of a conversation.\n\nAs a Giants fan, I've witnessed the Bonds thing from his arrival in 1993.\n\nHere is a link to a timeline for the BALCO case.  This is what, of course, really linked Bonds to steroids.\n\nhttp://www.usatoday.com/sports/balco-timeline.htm\n\nBonds played 147 games in 2004, a major load for a player of his age.\n\nBonds had what looked to be minor arthroscopic right knee surgery in January of 2005 (the offseason).  The surgery was intended to treat what has been described as an "arthritic condition."  That left a lot of hope among Giants fans that he would be okay for the 2005 season.  However, the first surgery did not produce positive results, and Bonds was forced to undergo a second similar procedure in March of 2005, right in the middle of spring training.  At that point, fans hoped he could return at some point during the season.\n\nBonds was further slowed by a post-surgical infection in the knee that required a third surgery in early May of 2005.  This led him to miss almost the entire 2005 season.  He returned in September for minor action, during which the team--hopelessly out of the pennant race--performed significantly better.\n\nBonds' knee is chronically bad.  He did not reinjure it in Spring Training 2006; rather his action was limited in order to avoid soreness and injury that would limit his regular season action.  Bonds did have elbow problems in spring training 2006--x-rays revealed bone chips that had significantly swollen his elbow and caused pain.  Bonds has indicated that he will not have surgery for the elbow chips.\n\nBy the way, Bonds had arthroscopic surgery on his other knee in October 2004 (immediately after the season) for the same arthritic condition.  The left knee is painful but has not produced the same level of discomfort and difficulty as the right one.\n\nBonds now is just a shell of the player he was.  He still has tremendous power and can hit the ball harder and further than anybody I've ever seen play in person.  But his tremendous speed and grace are gone.  Nevertheless, I would encourage you to try to see him if you can before he retires.

He's definitely NOT gonna play a single match. He's broken his metatarsal! Those things take ATLEAST 2 months to heal to full fitness! He broke it in the 1st week of May. Add 2 months to that & you're at the 1st week of July. If they even get to the finals without him, it'd be silly to bring him on with hardly any real practice under his belt!\n\nNo chance is he gonna play in this WC!

Jockey Edgar Prado visited Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Barbaro in the colt's stall on Tuesday morning at the New Bolton Center's George D. Widener Hospital in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania. \n\nPrado, who returned to riding the day after Barbaro broke down in the Preakness Stakes (G1) on May 20 at Pimlico Race Course, won the Metropolitan Handicap (G1) on Monday aboard Silver Train. Prado said he is still heartbroken, but he expects the visit to go a long way toward making him feel better. \n\n"Seeing him doing better helps a lot," Prado said. "He's not out of the woods but I'm just hoping that he continues to do good. It's going to take a long time before I feel a lot better and am not heartbroken."\n\nPrado said he did not bring anything special for Barbaro.\n\n"Just myself, just to show that I still care and love him," he said. "I think that's more important than anything you can bring. I was very happy. He looked great. He was very bright and strong, and he even wanted to get out of the stall. I'm very happy to see him happy that way."\n\nDean Richardson, D.V.M., the surgeon who operated on Barbaro, said the colt has had "an incredibly good week" since the procedure on May 21.\n\n"He's actually done far better than I would have ever hoped so far," Richardson said, repeating the words "so far" three times for emphasis. "He's perfectly comfortable in his limb, all of his vital signs are normal, [and] his blood work is good. Basically he could not at this moment look any better, in terms of his condition."\n\nImmediately after the surgery, Richardson gave a 50-50 prognosis for Barbaro to survive. He stopped short of issuing a new percentage on Tuesday, but he said "things are definitely better."\n\n"I'd be disingenuous to suggest that they are not better eight days post-op—there's no question that things are a lot better in terms of prognosis," Richardson said. "But it's still a long, long way from being discharged from the hospital."\n\nRichardson said Barbaro appears to be content in his confinement to a 12-by-12-foot stall. \n\n"Depression can only be assessed in certain objective ways: whether or not the horse eats, whether or not it has a bright eye, whether or not it's moving around the stall, whether or not it's interested in his neighbors," Richardson said. "This horse couldn't look a lot better in that regard. He is very active in the stall. When a horse walks by his window he's peaking out there trying to see who it is." \n\nAs of Tuesday morning, the cast on Barbaro's injured right hind leg had not been changed since the surgery. \n\n"Right now this horse is walking so well on his limb, he willingly rests his left hind, he walks around the stall and is very active, so my inclination at this point is to literally go day by day," Richardson said. "There's no absolutely compelling reason to change the cast, so I'm going to make that decision every single day that I look at the horse. … If he continues to look as good as he does, he can wear this cast for several more weeks."—Jeff Lowe

To  tell the truth I did consult page 360 but being a novice could not locate any solution.\n\nI hazard the guess that the incident has something to do with ROCKS.\n\nDid the revengful bartender hit the shy gentlemen with the gin on ROCKS that  felled him?\n\nOr did he fall on the ROCKS?\n\nEither way it could have hit him hard.\n\nHe should not have gone in for the gin on ROCKS!

Nook Logan got hurt in Spring Training. At that time, he was jockeying for the starting CF job with Granderson. I'm not sure if he's still hurt, but it's Granderson's job to lose.

"The incision has healed well and judging by the radiographs, the graft is opacifying ('taking')," Richardson said. "Callus is forming nicely, and all of the implants (plate and screws) look unchanged."\n\nhttp://www.bloodhorse.com/articleindex/article.asp?id=34002\n\nHe's beyond the normal infection stage. :-) \nI also saw a report that indicated a possiblity that Brother Derek's front foot and Barbaro's hind foot made contact which could be a reason. \nWould sure serve notice to have Brother Derek checked out just in case IMO
