Wow, they'd have filled a hospital's recovery ward. Unbelievable what a human body can do while in pain if the will is there. Incredible that these guys even got that far. Sure wish them all their recoveries are 100%.
When our team does not play as well as we feel they should, we should keep in mind that injuries could be the problem.
I'll stick to being an engineer in a plant full of hydrocarbons several times more volatile than gasoline.
it makes you wonder why baseball players cant play if they have a strained calf muscle
Hey, Anonymous, you're not, by chance, related to Better Half, are you?
That comment re baseball players can't play with a strained calf muscle was exactly like the comment Better Half made to me yesterday, after reading about tough hockey players playing through pain? LOL....
Not to mention sissy soccer players rolling around on the ground holding their leg....
