If I'm Jimmy I'm getting Aikman to do it. I think they're an abbreviated version of Landry/StaubachWhat are the odds that Jerry presents Jimmy on induction day? I'd put my money on it.

I think his misty eyed tribute the other night meant he passes the audition.If I'm Jimmy I'm getting Aikman to do it. I think they're an abbreviated version of Landry/Staubach
How do you undergo non invasive surgery? Isn’t surgery by definition invasive?Dallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch underwent surgery on his neck on Tuesday with the expectation that he will be available during the offseason program, according to multiple sources. Vander Esch missed seven games with the injury. The hope was he could avoid surgery with rest, but opted for a non-invasive procedure to alleviate the nerve issues he had been dealing with.

I honestly didn’t get why people were saying Johnson and Aikman hated each other. Aikman was clearly moved by Johnson’s surprise visit and his emotions when he was trying to compose himself after he found out.I think his misty eyed tribute the other night meant he passes the audition.
It is bullshit. They are probably petrified.How do you undergo non invasive surgery? Isn’t surgery by definition invasive?
Yeah I always thought the term non invasive meant they didn't cut into you at all. Which seems to be at odds with the term surgery.How do you undergo non invasive surgery? Isn’t surgery by definition invasive?
Just means not a huge incision. For the neck, usually it means taking an anterior approach (i.e. through the front of the neck). Usually you use an endoscope (small fiberoptic camera) rather than just cut the person open and look at what you want to operate on with your bare eyes.Yeah I always thought the term non invasive meant they didn't cut into you at all.

Technically maybe so but there are some procedures that can be done with an instrument like a needle that is inserted into an area and destroys the nerve that is causing the pain. This is used sometimes to avoid the knife so to speak. The good news it alleviates the problem for a time but the nerve will most probably regenerate in time. It all depends on how much of the nerve needs to be killed. It is considered a non invasive surgery but I don’t know if this is what was done.How do you undergo non invasive surgery?

I don’t know who said they hated each other but Aikman stated that their relationship was strained for a while and it took “several years to get past it”.I honestly didn’t get why people were saying Johnson and Aikman hated each other.

No he didn't get a rhizotomy (kills the nerve). LVE - I believe - had a herniated disc coupled with congenital spinal stenosis. The disc was pushing against the nerves supplying his arms most likely (not sure if one or both). Most likely this was treated by trimming the disc. You could do a fusion but I don't believe that would be minimally invasive. Also a fusion would be more career threatening.Technically maybe so but there are some procedures that can be done with an instrument like a needle that is inserted into an area and destroys the nerve that is causing the pain.

I think it's pretty awesome that he is willing to adapt to the players instead of basically starting from scratch and making everyone else learn his terminology. Ultimately he will have his playbook in there but the terminology used to call the plays will be the old system.
This commentary was the best out of everything McCarthy had to say.
