But the immediate story as soon as they took him out of the game was “injury” or “repeat injury.” I shattered my knee in a slip & fall years ago (stepping around the rear of my car in a grass parking lot in the rain and managed to step in a foot-deep hole as I turned) and over a decade later, I’ve only just reached a point where I feel safe enough to walk without a brace. Gives me the heebie jeebies to think of a neck injury. At least if my knee fails on me, I won’t have to worry about being paralyzed. Hopefully, he’s young enough to be able to bolster his anatomy and come out stronger in the long run.
