Might have to look for that on my Kindle and read it again.<br /><br />And wow on the video, that was one of the hardest sports video injuries I've ever watched. I thought about looking for it on youtube, but I just don't want to watch it again.Jeff Lawshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14325109853869480569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720761742430803148.post-51515332800818407982011-08-18T09:05:29.514-04:002011-08-18T09:05:29.514-04:00I remember this story well and the gut-wrenching v...I remember this story well and the gut-wrenching video of course. <br /><br />I could see why you'd particularly follow his story closely.
