My first five years, I missed a ton of games. I had elbow surgery twice; I had wrist surgery, knee surgery.
I've had two neck surgeries, a back surgery, three knee surgeries, eye surgery, but I keep bouncing back. I won't go away - kind of like a virus. I don't go away. I keep coming back stronger and stronger. I'm contagious.
