You knew it was coming, didn't you . . .

Without letting everyone down on Russ' annual tradition . . . we bring you the latest breaking news. He hasn't let you down . . . .

As you'll recall, Russ' wrists tend to have a difficult life. Read about it here, here, and here.


Russ finished his post-surgery physical therapy on his wrist in late September. For several weeks now, Russ has had new pain in the side of his surgically repaired wrist. He went to the doctor who performed the surgery and was informed that due to keeping the wrist immobile for 4 months and then putting it back to use, he now has tendonitis in his wrist. Now he gets to keep it in the brace for another 4 weeks while taking some ibuprofen as needed for the pain and swelling.

Wish him luck!!!! Hopefully it heals quickly and properly!!!

Don't let Donnie see this! I got tendonitis when I was pregnant with Baby Donnie and had to wear one of those braces for 6 weeks. Somehow for 6 longs weeks Donnie kept finding ways to make fun of my "bowling arm injury".
