While tracking down information regarding the brouhaha in Houston between the Texans and the Saints, we tripped over an item indicating that linebacker Cato June suffered a broken arm today.
But, apparently, not during any of the fights.
Per John McClain of the Houston Chronicle, June said on his Twitter page that he'll undergo surgery today to place a plate into the arm.
"A setback is a setup to a comeback," June said.
June was one of the younger players dumped by the Bucs in February, released after two seasons and 28 starts. He spent the four prior years in the Colts, and he was a member of the team that won Super Bowl XLI, starting all 20 regular-season and postseason games.
June is listed as the third-team weakside linebacker in Houston, behind Xavier Adibi and Zack Diles.

Wow... Cato June is poetic...
So, maybe Cato will think twice before intentionally trying to injure other players now.

What about the fights?
PePe le Puke broke his arm because Cato would not say, "I love crapes (tiny pancakes)"
Colts linebackers - take note what happens when you leave Indy. Peterson sucks, June 3rd string (about to get cut), Washington a free agent.
sure it wasnt the st. valentine's day massacre (deux)?
Does anybody remember "Cato June". This is the asshole who during a game with the Vikings in Tampa had his teammates on the Buccaneers holdup Adrian Peterson and on the most blatant cheapshot ever tried to cripple Adrian with the cheapest of cheapshots. Well Cato, even with a broken arm you're still an asshole!
"A setback is a setup to a comeback," June said.
Man, in that case the Cowboys haven't been just choking their playoff chances away for 12 years, they've just been getting ready for the biggest comeback ever!
A league source has told me that Cato June broke his arm trying to give Joe Mays a high-five.
John McClain broke the story? Man, his career went downhill fast. From blowing up Germans in high-rise buildings to covering the Texans.

I think he considers it a change of pace.
