Is Marc Marquez going to come back?

skysport reporting that marc is in a madrid hospital this morning.

MM93, to me, is basically an ego with a skin wrapped around it. He's a vicious Honey Badger and nobody who tangles with him comes out unscathed. He brings no entertainment other than his enormous talent. He has no real public persona, no apparent sense of humor, certainly no ability for self deprecating humor. That's why we love Vale, Miller, and Cal. They're far more complicated and far more interesting.

I wouldn't walk across the street for an MM93 autograph if he was giving them away with ten dollar bills. I'd walk five miles for a Vale autograph, in the rain.

Dude, that's 3 gallons of gas, or 3 street tacos or a 6 pack of beer....I walk across the street if I see something shiny on the sidewalk

But I don't disagree with you.

8 hour surgery completed today, with a hip bone bone graft to humerus

Bone graft?

Well, that just reinforces my opinion he won’t be at the tip of the spear in 2021.

The original Spanish tweet said 11 hours. Maybe that was from time he was spied entering the hospital until they made an announcement.

He won't be at the tip of his spear, but he'll be at the tip of the competition's spear.

Is there video from Dorna of Steve Day and Matt Birt commenting on the operation?

"A Season of Super Surgeries for multi-time champion"

"An eleven hour surgery completed in just eight hours! Who else but Marc Marquez could pull off such an astounding feat?"

"The doctor can surely rely on the grunt of that Italian bone saw to make up time on the straight cuts"

... And as Marc wakes up from the anesthetic haze, his eyes focus on the shadowy figure standing over him, as he's greeted by the words "allora we poosh poosh poosh very 'ard to make good for surgery"

No doubt GPone will have an extensive "See, I told you so" post-op interview with Costa.

Tomorrow's Repsol tweet will be a photo of Puig spotting MM93 doing pullups.
