Fasho bro. My 2015 has been
January 8th my judge gave me 120 days for a probation violation, missing a report, that I had an excuse for. I did 84 of that before the bytch let me our for "her mistake".
July 21st I broke my leg
A few days ago my car was stole and now it's completely useless.
I'm due for some good luck somehow. I really gotta start praying man, there has to be some reason all these losses keep coming
Seriously?

Aaron Rodgers tore his ACL in 2000 playing pickup basketball
He then played the next 4 seasons from high school to junior college and his first year at Cal on a torn ACL

The Nastiest Injury in Sports
Dr. Robert Litchfield, medical director of the Fowler Kennedy Sport Medicine Clinic at the University of Western Ontario and part of the Canadian Alpine Ski Team medical group, studied videotape of ACL injuries and found a pattern. He found that those who tore their ACLs all did the exact same thing with their legs when they were avoiding a defender or reacting to an offensive player. “They throw it [the injured limb] out to the side, and they try to make an upper-body move where they move away from the side that they’ve just planted,” he says. “And they get to what we call a `point of no return.'” The knee misaligns, turns inward, and the athlete lands knock-kneed. That is when you hear the pop. That is why, Dr. Litchfield believes, an athlete like LeBron James will never suffer a tear. “When he comes down from a dunk, he comes down very low and powerfully versus coming down on an extended leg.” In short, LeBron’s legs are bowed, and athletes who bow their legs generally don’t tear their ACLs.
The problem is that athletes in the heat of battle seldom think about how they plant or land. They just do it. And when they do, and their ACL tears, they are basically screwed.

Thread Closed...As Usual
As funny as this sounds, about 12 or so years ago, this was the first thing I noticed about Lebron, as I told my brother "watch how this kid plants", he's bow legged AND duck-footed, lol. I didn't think he'd be as good as he became, but I knew he wouldn't get injured much. Around the same time, we watched n ESPN special on Syracuse/Carmelo and I watched that guy cramp up and lay in the middle of the street after sitting in a minivan for 15min.
