							So maybe my left hammy went out. Tough to lift that leg.  I'll find out at the gym. Better take some Motrin with me.

 I miss it terribly, but not the infield rash on my knees, thighs and ass, god knows you'd think I'd remember that I wasn't 19 anymore and wouldn't slide, not me, mid50 yo man acting like a fool, the only way to stop that is to quit playing. 
 
Now I watch my Grandkids, much safer.

 Indoor. I'm too lazy to go chasing after balls anymore. 
3 times a week for about 2 hours. I am drenched and spent by the end. 
. 
My wife introduced me to it a few years ago and I've been all over it since. At first I just wanted the cardio but then I actually had fun beating other players  . One on one is difficult with my bad legs but I can do two or three games. Cutthroat or doubles I could play all day probably. 
. 
One of my knees is bone on bone and a torn acl, doc want to do knee replacement. other knee I blew out in the court a year ago, torn acl also. Doc want to put in a cadaver ligament there. I have opted to do neither at this point.
