Peter King has a quote from an orthopedic surgeon that said (paraphrasing) that what favre has is technically a stress fracture but is closer to a severely sprained ankle. The second "fracture" is a bone chip on his heel. Surgeon went on to say he can get pain killing shots for both and that if it were a playoff game, almost any qb would be a go with the same injuries...
I think people build this up as a way to further the Brett Favre mythos a little more. After all, he's the iron man gunslinger just going to go out,sling it and have fun out there.
