Funny because I believe it’s true. Concussion protocol used to be “how many fingers am I holding up” and “what day is it?” I wouldn’t even know where to begin on the number of concussions I had while playing. I know for a good 10 or 12 years after I stopped playing, I had constant headaches, sudden loss of balance, extreme mood swings, and would often forget what I was talking about in mid-sentence. It was so bad that I knew it wasn’t normal but you feel trapped and it’s kind of perceived as weak to blame it on concussions.lmao - Yes, in our days, the high school coaches treated concussions like a stinger and the minute you could count 3-fingers, you were back in. At least that was the way it was in basketball and baseball.
I was pitching in a game and got beamed by a laser shot like drive. The coaches came out and talked to me. I knew my name so he gave me the ball back to continue pitching. I still don't remember the last few innings. I know we won that game and we didn't win many so I guess the story is that I pitched better when I was freakin clueless -lol
