"We're excited to see George," head coach Patrick Roy said before the game. "He's been playing really well. Unfortunately for him, every time we needed a call-up, he was hurt or sick. We're excited to have him up here right now. We love our young guys, we trust them, it's a good opportunity for him. He played so well last year."
I have never shared that with anybody, Truth said. According to Truth, he suffered an injury in the ring, and after surgery, he caught an infection. In 2022, during a match against Grayson Waller, Truth tore his quad tendon. After receiving surgery, he experienced four types of infections that he says could have been career-ending, and the doctors were even debating amputation if the infection did not heal.
When the synth-pop duo Soft Cell formed in 1977, Dave Ball, who has died in his sleep aged 66, made the perfect foil for the vocalist Marc Almond. Where Almond was mercurial and histrionic, Ball assumed the role of mysterious and reclusive mastermind. Almond would invariably be writhing in something black and skin-tight, possibly festooned with zips, while Ball might be wearing a suit and tie and attending soberly to his keyboard.
Jamal Musiala is targeting a return to action for Bayern Munich before the end of 2025. Musiala suffered a fractured fibula and a dislocated ankle in a challenge with Gianluigi Donnarumma during Bayern's defeat to Paris Saint-Germain at the Club World Cup in July. Bayern confirmed he would be absent for a minimum of four months and would require surgery immediately. The Germany playmaker recorded 21 goals and eight assists in all competitions for Bayern last season.
TOS surgery would keep Gray sidelined for a big chunk of the 2026 season and perhaps the entirety of next year, and Gray would be 35 on Opening Day 2027.
