Well, this is horrible and horrifying: UCLA defensive back Marcus Rios could miss all of 2013 (that's not the horrifying part) thanks to an ongoing series of surgeries intended to eradicate what the L.A. Times is calling "a fungus infection in his sinus area" (there it is). His next operation will be his seventh since last October.
