>Remember Larry Csonka? He was that 6-3, 235-pound fullback, that played for the Miami Dolphins and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1987. After he retired he bought a home in the mountains of Colorado. He was asked what it was like to wake up in the morning.

>Larry answered, due to the injuries he had received playing football, it was very painful to get out of bed after waking up. He then described the major injuries and where and how much it hurt. Then he said, I think of all the football players I hurt which makes me feel better and then I can get out of bed! :)

He also played for the Memphis Grizzlies of the whatever league that was. Yep, I'm paying for all my playing, but life is not a spectator sport. Life is hard and then you die!<g> I've been in pain so long, I'm starting to like it!
