I did enjoy football, but the injury factor for me, you know, I had so many issues. I don’t know how long my career would’ve been.
If the mind says the injury is nothing, it will mean nothing. If the mind says competitions are nothing, it will mean nothing.

When you have a spinal or brain injury, or any kind of devastating illness, you kind of fall through the cracks in a sense. Your world implodes, and no one is really there to help pick up the pieces.

Fear of serious injury alone cannot justify oppression of free speech and assembly. Men feared witches and burnt women. It is the function of speech to free men from the bondage of irrational fears.
Check my records: you’ll find I’ve never caused a bad injury to a player.
I came back from my ACL injury and won MVP. So, what’s a groin? What’s an adductor? That’s how I look at things. I feel like if you just continue to take care of your body, working out, making sure you’re in shape and you stay on top of your game, you can play as long as you want.
Of course, animals have to be killed for food or to prevent their doing injury to others or to property. But such killing is too often carried out without regard to the pain inflicted.
You kind of look at the timeline of what has happened to me and with having a pretty good rookie year and the second year getting the injury and Kurt Warner played himself into the Hall of Fame in the last 3 years. There’s not a lot I can do about that. I battled with a Hall of Famer two training camps in a row.
I’ve never done a fake injury or something like that. If I look tired, in pain, it’s because this is true.

The obvious thing is I would love to fight Conor McGregor. We’ve got some history there, and he won, and people saying he didn’t knock me out because of an injury he had. I was injured in the fight, too, so let’s test that theory. I want to test that theory.
Every act of conscious learning requires the willingness to suffer an injury to one’s self-esteem. That is why young children, before they are aware of their own self-importance, learn so easily.

If you were inactive due to an injury or a surgery, then common sense rules the day when inching closer to the area that was hurt. That is very different from inactivity due to being ill. After illness, be aware of how taxing your workout is cardiovascularly and err on the side of less.
Rehabbing any significant injury is a substantial challenge independently; braving the process twice makes for even longer odds.
I think that beauty can injure you to death. It can cause an injury that can never be cured. Or it can so traumatise you, your life changes direction. The beauty of the harmony of nature that is forever lost, or a daily rite that you perform, or diving into the sea for a swim. Those experiences are going to mark you.

When you sign for a new club, you just want to play, and when injury stops you, it is frustrating.
