I scared her enough for one lifetime when I passed out. I still think about how scary that was for her. I would never want to put her in a position where I would scare her like that again.
I plan on coming back and playing. I'm jogging a little bit. I'm starting to see I will be able to play again.
Even though the risk of something serious happening is very low, there is a risk.
I think we knew that when I got released back in August that there was a possibility that I was going to play this year. Now it's kind of becoming a reality.
I enjoyed looking at the talent. That's something I've always wanted to do, to put a team together. I'm going to learn as much as I can, and try to help this team get where it was a couple of years ago.
Nothing's for sure. I just want to find out if it's a situation that would make sense.
When something is taken away from you before you're ready, something that you love to do so much, it's tough to accept. But at the end of the day, what it came down to was my family being comfortable with me being out there. And that's not going to happen.
All of you are aware of the journey I've taken this past year and I just want to relay to all of the people that sent along their prayers and well wishes, my heartfelt thanks. It was truly overwhelming to me and my family the outpouring that we received from the Twin Cities community and from across the Midwest.
