Gomez with possible ankle or heel fracture

Ive seen jock's win races with their shoulder that had just been dislocated tape up and ride and I have seen guy's like Scott Stevens ride with a broken collar bone in 4 weeks. Its actually pretty amazing how much the human body can take when you want to do something.

Those of us that are married are reminded of that very fact everyday.
