Knocked heads with Atwell
He was hit in the mouth by the TT player’s head and went down and hit the floor. It looked like he had a concussion to me.

Isiah missed most of the summer workouts due to knee problems stemming from ACL surgery he had a couple of years ago. I believe that is the reason for his slow start. He needs to regain his confidence both mentally and physically. By all accounts, Sampson really believes in him and will bring him along when he is ready. I thought Harwell may have turned the corner in the last couple of games, but this is a minor setback.
It reminds me a little of Milos when he broke his nose early last season and it set him back a few games. He finally recovered and got comfortable with the team and started putting up nice numbers.
There were a couple of times he got switched on to Anderson and Anderson baited him into leaving his feet on head fakes. But Harwell learned quickly and shortly before he exited, he put the clamps on Anderson. I can’t remember if it resulted in a shot clock violation or terrible shot attempt, but I was super impressed!
I was a catcher in baseball and never had a ball hit my cup.
One night I was not expecting to play but was called in to catch.
My glasses fogged up… the big leftie was doing really well with his curve.
Because in my anxiety I forgot the signals, when I saw it coming I had to throw my mitt at straight arm distance to the ground on my left side and thank God the ball was always there.
When that ball hit it felt like he was throwing bowling balls. I did not get hit twixt my legs but it was always on my mind. I have no idea how many pass palls I let go. Just the sweat, fogged glasses, and anxiety and glad when it was over with!
Braxton Clark, there’s a blast from the past. He terrorized the downtown Y gym after UH

I think with all the high def cameras now that strategy would backfire
You only need to use it once or twice to establish the FAFO factor

No word on his injury? He was woozy when he stood up.

I also played catcher and got hit in the balls blocking pitches in the dirt a couple of times…

Harwell was definitely concussed.

We have tugler
ADHD super human reaction times… fueled by earlier experiences and fear resulting therefrom!
The one that stands out in my mind was a foul tip, though… that one lined up square…

To this day I cannot watch those “funniest videos” shows. Knowing what it feels like I can only wince, knowing what it is like. I don’t watch them.
