In the high school where I sometimes work, I see lots of young guys sporting various appliances to help them walk after their latest soccer/football/whatever injury, and wearing shirts (apparently provided by the athletic program) that read, “pain is weakness leaving the body.” No, sir, pain is the body informing you that these tendons, joints and muscles have sustained damage, and in another thirty or forty years (when you are no longer the coach’s responsibility) it’s gonna suck to be you.
