That is great news. He is a great guy and we love him down here in Southern Utah.

Harpring is a great person...Good news for the hustling Muscleman of Wall Street."

I'd be very interested in knowing what the stomach coating medicine is. Is it Polyethylene Glycol?

Glad to hear Matt has seemed to find out he is doing better. No body works harder than tan Matt
gives all he has while he is playing.

It must be home cooking. If invited to eat dinner at the Harpring household I might decline unless it is take out. Don't freak out everyone I am just kidding. This is great news for Jazz he scores more points per minutes on the floor than any other Jazz Player. This does definately help the road woes.

I'm thrilled for both Matt and the Jazz! It's going to make a big difference having him able to play unlimited minutes and stop missing games for stomach ailments. I'd really like to know what medication it was that was eating his stomach lining. It should have is FDA approval revoked.

That's good news, now let's just hope Matt doesn't blow out the knee again. Surgically repaired knees are fragile creatures. The doctors have given the OK to increase his playing time, look out.

The amazing stomach coating medicine is a drug called Peptohbhizmale.

Re: Team Player | 3:46 p.m. Jan. 24, 2008

Harpring has been having bad, inflamed knees for the last couple years. I bet the drug he used is more of a short term remedy that was used too long and led to digestive problems.

I like Matt. He's the personification of Jazz ball, or at least what it ought to be: team player, not flashy, doesn't care about limelight, hard worker and tough. And a good guy off the court from what I know.

Still the Jason Bourne of the Court!

Congratulations to Matt. As a cancer survivor I can tell you the relief I feel every time I have a follow-up and they confirm I am still cancer-free. With that off of his mind, and FINALLY the clearance to play as needed, watch out for Matty to TEAR UP THE COURT. Opposing defenders, beware.
