Damn that Timmerman is one tough SOB with some serious heart.

If he doesn't make the hall of fame I will be the first to send a very very angry letter to the nfl commisioners office. He is the ultimate iron man. He hasn't missed a game in something like 240ish I want to say, might be wrong though games. He continues to fight through his injuries so that he can help this team win. If he isn't the perfect guard then it doesn't exist.

Adam Timmerman was a member of the 1999 Super Bowl team. He was also a member of the Packers Super Bowl champion team in 1996. I appreciate his dedication to playing at a high level.

makes you wonder how some of these guys in the nfl can sit out games with much lesser injuries,but yet timmerman is going to play with cracked ribs, thats painful in regular life and he's going to play football with them and he's an o-lineman to boot.he offically makes the alltime tough guy team.

Timmerman will be rotating in and out with Goldberg. When you guys go to church today, could you put in a word for Adam's ribs?

As someone mentioned earlier, it is a painful injury. Just imagine if you had to sneeze with an injury like that. Now imagine opposing players that know of his injury striking him in the rib cage...
