I played college basketball, so even though I don't play now "competitively," except for Church League, it's very important to me. One of the first things I asked the doctor was if I'd be able to play basketball again. He said two years. But I still don't know if that means I can goof around on the court, or if I can go at it hard. See, I'm a super-competitive person. I don't believe in "playing for fun." I'm out to win, whether it's basketball, chess, monopoly, or some random party-oriented board game. I'm out for blood. So when I say I won't be 100%, I'm going on two things. 1. When I say 100% I mean that I can bang around and take charges and dive for lose balls and scrimmage on the court for three hours. 2. My doc said I'll be 100% as far as functionality goes, but that I'll never be "like I came from the factory" - his phrase.



But life is good, otherwise!
