Coach,

Great observation. I suffer from severe migrane headaches, which was brought on by taking too many hits as a runningback. Back in the day, when RBs weighed 150 and 160 lbs in high school, I carried the ball anywhere from 20 to 30 times in ball games. I caught about 4-5 passes and played safety plus kick-off returner.

I took some serious shots and I gave out some serious shots. At that time, you're not thinking about your body, just making the play. Now, with father time catching up with me, I have severe migranes and under doctor medication. It does not help. I've got arthritis in my arm which causes me not to sleep. I sleep about 3-4 hours a night.

I just had 2 days of migranes where I was totally shut down! This happens from time to time as a remainder of what I did in my earlier life.
