The Love of the Game
Talk about having passion for your favorite sport. I just read the story about a man named Trevor who decided to have one of his fingers amputated instead of having surgery in order to continue playing football. He plays for a college out in Colorado and decided to have his injured pinky finger partially removed so he could continue to play throughout this season.
During the interview he said that the doctors told him he needed to be rational and think about what he was doing. He told them to cut it off and hasn’t regretted that decision. He said he would rather play football than have to give up his favorite sport due to an injury. I think it’s great he was able to make this decision without any regret.
