Looks like you may see a working treatment for the disease in a decade. You must be happy!

May I have your permission to copy this blog onto my website at http://www.sportsmedadvocate.com? This epitomizes the importance of athletes of all ages finding and utilizing the proper medical professional when an injury occurs. It also places into perspective the challenges of different levels of competition, and the stresses placed upon the body regarding increased competitive lkevels, something most people dont understand!

Thanks,

Vinnie Hudson

The gossip hounds were all over him at his press conference last night, trying to get him to say — on TV — exactly who was drinking beer in the clubhouse during the game, who was running his mouth, who was the poison. The manager, with his usual class, wasn’t talking. I’m sure all the names will be in the paper in the next few weeks. We can be sure it wasn’t Pedroia, but everybody else is suspect.

It is surely a true-blue cast-iron bitch that Francona ended up wearing the dunce cap in this classroom full of clowns.

I love how you still call out the media after all these years.

You should write this up for the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics conference. They have a research paper track which is the dorky highlight of the entire weekend. Go here for details: http://www.sloansportsconference.com/call-for-papers-1st-abstract-submission-deadline-friday-september-16-2011-at-5pm-edt/

and lemme know if you want some advice with the writeup (I presented last year).

it was great to have you as a red sox. have a wonderful life, my best wishes to you and your family.

I am a big fan of yours from Philly. I have checked in on your auction at Hunts Auctions and had a request. I know it is probably not realistic but I was wondering if you had anything I could purchase for around $100 donation. You are one of my favorite all time players and I tried to model myself both after your work ethic and grit displayed on and off the field. Unfortunately I could only afford to spend a $100 for something from your Philly days. Please let me know if there is anything I can purchase.

PS Loved your interview on 610 today. It was a nice suprise
