The spirit is willing, but...
A couple of months ago I was seriously considering a come back on the old Gridiron. Getting my helmet back on and hitting folk again in the name of exercise and stress relief.
My knees were a bit knackered...one of the reasons I quit in the first place...and didn't much like running in snow.
Also, I wasn't sure I had time for the upped training requirements. three times a week was a bit much on my schedule.
Today I got a text from the team's head Coach - who was coach back in my day, left and is now back at my last club. He was pretty much begging me to rethink because they don't have enough players (and I think those they DO have are very young, even though I remember some as ten year olds who are now nearing 20...scary.)
Flattering in a way.
Sooooo....I'm considering reunretiring. Bret Favre eat your heart out.
Not sure my body can handle it. Not sure how much of my time it will take up....but damn I want to play again...
