It seemed fitting that after his brave-faced honesty fronting the media this week, Bombers captain Jobe Watson should be confronted in his first game of the season by a Sydney downpour. |
Back in 1974, when Dr. Frank W. Jobe dreamed up the operation to fix John's elbow, the idea of repairing the arm of a high school player would have been ridiculed. |
Jobe and Gambardella also split the ligament to look at the elbow joint, which was deemed healthy, and used sutures to close up the ligament. |
There are little girls called Sorrow Meers and Dosy Dearn, and a child found on the church steps who was given the apt name Jobe Foundling. |
In 1990 Jobe performed an innovative surgery on the pitching shoulder of Orel Hershiser, who had sustained an injury to his rotator cuff. |
Jobe Watson, Patrick Ryder and Joe Daniher kicked two goals each for Essendon and Dyson Heppell and Brent Stanton were also busy for the Bombers. |
