Unger Out for Season!

This is the worst possible news for the Hawks.  Unger was one of the few bright spots last year for the Hawks and was poised to become even better this year.  That is until he broke his toe early in the 49ers game.  Being the stud he is, Max played through the injury.  After the game, initial reports had Unger missing next week’s game and that was it.  After all it is only a toe, right?  Reports this afternoon state that Unger will now be out for the entire season.  I can’t help but wonder if this could have been prevented had Unger not played through the injury.  It’s a really tough call.  Did PC know about it and keep him in, or did Unger keep the injury to himself until the game’s conclusion?  Either way a man weighing in at over 300 pounds has now been placed on IR for a TOE injury.  Hang in there Hawk fans, and let’s hop that Okung’s rookie year will make up for the loss.  That is whenever he gets back from his injury.
