Good article about USA's Will Thompson overcoming a possible career-ending injury
This is a pretty good article about USA's Will Thompson overcoming a possible career-ending injury.
http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2014/...otbal.html
Here is a snippet:
Quote:Jinni Frisbey took a moment to compose herself - this was not a message she wanted to deliver -- then entered Will Thompson's hospital room. She wanted Thompson, who had undergone surgery on his right leg, to understand what he was now facing
"I told him, 'I want to be straight-up honest with you','' Frisbey, South Alabama's assistant athletics director for sports medicine, recalled telling the Jaguars' defensive end. "I told him, 'You may not play football again.'
"He looked at me and he said, 'You scared me. I thought you were going to tell me I was never going to walk again. Now, can you get me some Chinese food? I'm hungry.'''
