Pop Goes the Dream (The End of My Journey?)

My Injured Leg

I got the ball on the wing, faked right, exploded left. It was game number four of 2-on-2 this past Sunday. As I planted my right foot and pushed off trying to drive past my defender, I felt a pop in between my right calf muscle. I couldn’t tell you what happened to the basketball. All I know is I felt something no athlete ever wants to feel and my feet grew roots. I couldn’t move.

I Feel Alive Right Now!!!

2010 began like most years for me. Dick Clark did the countdown, the ball dropped, fireworks went off, and the calendar changed. Truthfully, I’ve never been much into new year’s resolutions because they don’t typically work.
