Getting injured Unappreciation / Appreciation for injured Athlete's struggles Thread

So I strained my hamstring on Sunday at the track during my last run

Been sitting on a block of ice for 30mn at a time since then. My level of for Tony Parkers heroics during the Finals just quadrupled.

I can't even walk fast right now. That mofo was sprinting and draining 3's like it was nothing.

Sometimes we forget that these dude really fight through some tough ass injuries that most people would lay in bed all day over.

They also have the best massage therapists, team doctors, trainers, therapeutical equipment/techniques, and questionable "cortisone" injections money can buy

But yeah, professional athletes aren't built like us regular humans.

I used to laugh at all of the T-mac/T-back/T-pain injuries until I threw out my shyt lifting a sofa of all things. fukking ya back up is no whore for real and will have the toughest nikkas looking . Once u throw ya back out 1 time (no homo) ya shyt is gonna b larry holmes status 4 life. The most random shyt will have u feeling like you might tweek it again and I can only imagine playing pro basketball with a severe back problem. T-mac I salute u nikka! fukk what everybody else say.
