ouch. That's one of the worst injuries for basketball. Is the ankle still not there or is it the mental thing not wanting to hurt it again

I bet on you for a one to one basketball game against me

vangogh - it's mental. It's not physical. Lord knows the ankle is strong now. As it should be with metal plates holding it together...

lucioribeiro - you're on buddy. I'll take ya, even with a dodgy ankle!

vangogh - Did you watch the Dream Team vs Australia last night. The Aussies gave them a good run, even without Bogut playing. 12 point game

hope it heals James - I snapped my Achillies playing football - never the same again

Ouch Paul! I've heard that's the most painful injury of all with the whiplash effect.

I dunno about whiplash James but I'd thought been shot ... took a year to stop limping ... now, we'll now im even more unstable at footie

do you still play Paul?

some say i never could play in the first place -- my nickname was Maradonna -- ah the days, still looks like the boy is really good

or was ir Maddonna

it

ah yes... there's nothing like channeling your unfulfilled sporting dreams through your child. I feel sorry for my future son

damn right James -- however, some of the parents need a serious telling to the way they behave

how on earth they see it fun for their kids with them frothing on the sidelines is beyond me

I just give mine a bollocking behind closed doors - that's a joke by the way

Ha. Yes... it's best to hide ugly parent syndrome behind closed doors where only your child knows what is said!
