Injuries

Before my team's eighth strait loss last night, I had an interesting conversation about injuries. I complained about my chronic tendinitis, but, as it turns out, my teammates have it much worse. One guy--our best player, actually--has a phantom shoulder pain that causes him to randomly lose all sensation in his shoulder. He swears by acupuncture. Another has an Achilles heel on the verge of rupturing. He keeps playing, saying his chiropractor makes it bearable. Another swears by something called Active Release Therapy. Sounds sort of quackish. My knees are hurting so bad I can barely make it down the stairs.
