OT The HCPJr.

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

Whenever you tell stories, I picture Homer’s dad!

When I see your Avatar Photo, I picture a young Walton unfolding himself from the rear seat of the Datsun he drove out on the field to greet the kids on my Pop Warner football team. He was quite a hit that day, football practice just a little more fun.

Sorry to hear that HCP. Hope he heals quickly and stays with a positive attitude. It seems like he has a good support system him around him :cheers:
 
John, sorry to here about this for you and for Jr.

May be too soon to say, but I'd like to point out that this is the type of thing that helps him become a better man, dad and leader for the next 90 years, not just worrying about the next 4.
Thanks man.

@BrianFromWA at least this gives him more time to enjoy that Sonos speaker in his bedroom!!

My father use to say that it takes a lot of bumps, bruises, cuts, painful accidents to make a man. Whenever I got an owy I used to think about that and suddenly my hurt body didn't hurt so bad.
 
I had a friend in high school who had the same thing happen. They had to put a metal rod in his leg, but he ended up being able to join the Army after school and went on to serve. I know your kid will recover and have a bright future.
 
now he'll just have to get into college the old fashioned way. Now if he can figure out what the old fashioned way is, please let the rest of us know.

I hear it helps if you claim to be part Cherokee. :dunno:
 
Thanks man. Before this had some people say he had D2 talent. Maybe he’ll play somewhere D3. I know he still wants to keep playing.

Seems like an illogical idea at this point.

Plenty of time to get a coaching or broadcasting education, and Dad has the contacts.

You heard wrong. I'm part Cherokee and I had to compete for everything I got.

If your referring to Senator Warren, maybe you could recount a single incident where her claim got her anything except endless derision from our classless President.
 
Really sorry to hear that John. Always like seeing your posts about your kids, and other peoples' as well, to see the proud parents we have on here. Brutal thing to get taken away from him. Here's hoping he's still able to parlay some of his earlier success into free schooling

He needs to learn Amazon FBA and become an internet millionaire.
 
Tough deal but he’s s tough young man who I’m sure will get stronger physically and mentally on his road to recovery.



By the way HCP, shouldn’t jr just go lowercase “hcp”
I think you are right.
 
@HCP
Hope this doesnt come across as creepy. I saw a couple injuries recently and it got me thinking I wonder how your sons doing with his rehab?
Hope all is well.
Not creepy at all bro. Thanks for asking. Ya been a tough 6 weeks. After a month he got his leg checked out and they put a new cast on him. Just had the 2nd cast taken off yesterday and is now in a walking boot, but can't put any weight or pressure on it for at least 2 more weeks. Then it's off to rehab. He is going to crush rehab, it's his head we are still concerned about. Has a real tight group of friends and a lot of support. Grades are better than normal, so who knows. It was tough, we had to take his PSU and Lewis and Clark visits with a cast and a scooter. Good kid, hoping everything turns out. Thanks again for checking.

...he injured his head too? Or you just mean his mental state? CTE is a scary thing if you were referring to actual head trauma!
 
You allow him to wear Birkenstock's?

The toughest kid I know wears them. He's in 4th grade.

Puts them on right after practice. It's fucking HILARIOUS!

I joke with his dad about them all the time.
