field on Friday of this week I was worried I was going to have to find an insurance running back host for the fantasy Focus football podcast while we were down doing the ultimate draft experience at bajamar in the Bahamas I don't want to bury the lead there's a lot of stuff we want to talk about a lot of people we want to give thanks to and flowers to but but field come on we can't bury this I'll try my best to make this a fairly short recounting of what happened this past Friday but we as part of the weekend we had a a combine basically to determine the draft order it was a variety of activities one of which included this obstacle course the conclusion of the obstacle course was a blowup quarterback dummy that you had the right to kind of run through you could have just avoided him you could have done what Mike Clay did which just tap that thing or you could have pretended like you were 17 and not 37 like I did go up and try to drill that freaking thing so after a great morning in which we ran the Sandy toes 40 and we're were doing you know quarterback accuracy contest I figured let me test my luck with this Optical Cor let me tell you I was cruising people on the beach I mean I was already confused for Tyreek Hill once earlier that morning because of my speed like my elusiveness like people were like oh my God is this like Debo Samuel Barry Sanders like who is this guy and uh then all of a sudden we went through this obstacle course and as we went through the obstacle course I decided that it was important for me to go and tackle the crap out of this quarterback and no one have video we have video we watching right who are watching on YouTube we have a video of the of said tackle and the aftermath yeah so I I tried my best to crush that thing and I knew right away something was really bad uh and I have been very fortunate to avoid significant injury for the most part in my life uh this was this has been by far the worst injury that I have endured but I knew right away something was bad uh Daniel Mike and I were there Stefania was coming down um shortly yes uh because remember me of the Tor planner fascia could not participate in thetic events and so we had recorded podcast I was going upstairs to change and come down and I was way up at the other end of the property up in the hotel I was frantically texting Stef after this happened to make this happened so I hit I take the hit and I immediately am like crap please let me shake this off but I know something is wrong yeah I know this feeling it's different than like um you know you stub your toe you you run into something whatever it might be I knew something was very very bad and that I needed some sort of medical attention sooner rather than later but I also was you know candidly like it's a little bit embarrassing when you're with 50 people all having a blast you know it's 11:00 a.m. it's beautiful bajamar Resort people are having a great time um so I'm like let me just go sit down and you know it's weird is my my shoulder that you know the headline is my shoulder was dislocated um it was hanging off my arm there and I I kind of could only grab my wrist to somewhat stabilize my arm we all thought it was a wrist injury because of that I we just need to stop right here for a moment like to everybody who watches injuries on TV and they're like oh he's grabbing his wrist in his hand like a classic for a shoulder dislocation is to grab your wrist because you're trying to just keep your arm from moving I mean some guys will grab their shoulder but often they'll just grab their wrist so again this is just a lesson to everyone out there like all that Daniel's like we thought what's wrong with his wrist what's wrong did he break his wrist what happened and yeah so thankfully I guess I don't know I I don't know thankfully or not it was not a wrist injury but I end up uh stefia and you know I'll do this now because I think it's really important thing like we talk about this all the time like there is simply nobody in the world who compares to stefia with her knowledge of sports medicine and the way that she's able to apply it to Fantasy Football uh but I was she she's the hero of the day because I was in a bad spot an unfamiliar spot for me not just in terms of avoiding injuries but we're down in a foreign country right and these the amazing people at bajamar and the medical staff were all wonderful but you know when you're in a bad spot like there's something very very comforting and familiar my wife was on a plane down yeah coming down uh to be part of the rest of the weekend she had to work on Thursday so she couldn't join us till Friday this is the second time I've had to call the wife of one of my hosts to say you're going to need to go to the hospital yes um so it was uh and Stefania came down you guys all know Stefan is if you haven't heard but like she's dealing with planner fasion like her foot is on fire when she takes one step I'm looking up and I'm like Daniel I'm like please get St down here please get stefia down here and meanwhile like all of a sudden I see her like emerging and I'm like oh my God and Stef's running down the beach and I'm like she can barely walk and she's sprinting is that oh no it's stf had no idea yeah uh and you know uh stfc like for insurance purposes stfa and none of us were able to really do anything because it would have really compromised my ability to go to the hospital uh but step kind of gave me a lot of the peace of mind that I needed and she stuck with me for the entire day um we had to go in the ambulance together and I once to find you tell a little bit about that ride but we ended up probably from I don't know from the moment it got separated dislocated until the moment we left was probably four and a half hours and stf was there for every step of it um which includes you know there's there's the physical part of it but like you know I'm sitting there and I'm like all I want right now is for someone to take my shoulder and put it back in the sock back place and there's a ton of paperwork and insurance stuff and truly if Stefania wasn't there I I don't know what would have happened but I would have been in a way spot so I feel like I should be indebted to you anyways but I am like forever indebted to you and if people ever doubt the sincerity of how wonderful she is as a human and how brilliant she is with her medical stuff like I now uh can say with even more firsthand knowledge that that should never cross your mind um and she made me feel so much more at ease and U beond like on top of that she's been a resource in the aftermath we as after we finish this conversation stf is putting me in her car and taking me as I go see a specialist for the next steps here um so my sincere thanks to you thank you feels is the best but uh honestly I would do it for any of you as you know because I'm adding up I'm like St go back to the freaking I'm like go back to the thing like even when my wife got there and she came right from the airport to the hospital she's like you can just go and you're like no I'm not I'm good she's like I'm not leaving I'm going to stay here make sure not a chance she's like I want to see I wanted to see the X-ray so I got to see the pictures and you know I was so just want to make sure everything it's hard if anybody's ever been in a foreign country and been injured or ill it's scary it's scarier than when it happens in your backyard you know so there's there's a lot to that peace of mind component but honestly the part you know what people don't appreciate first of all I did say to field when he was still sitting there with his shoulder out next time a player goes down with a dislocated shoulder he's like I will never question their toughness ever again you know you see guys go off and they go the back and they reduce their shoulder put it back in they put a harness on they come back out and play think about that you know and and so field has an appreciation anyone who questions player toughness when you go through something like this you appreciate it but the ambulance ride I kept saying was something out of like Jason Bourne movie because we are going down streets and if you're if you don't know like you can drive on the driving sometimes you're on the wrong side of the road there and then we were deliberately going wrong way in traffic and cars are coming head head first towards us Fields luckily in the back on a g can't see any of those things but every also the roads in Bahamas not necessarily on par with the ones here as smooth hot holes boom boom field saying words I've never heard come mouth every time we hit a pothole and I'm thinking just good thing he can't see because we are splitting traffic going up on curbs we're next to cement trucks are moving over and I'm thinking how are we going to fit but we got there we got there and everybody was lovely in terms of how they cared for field so that that is the best part for what it's you you want no that they I I really can't thank the staff at bahamar both before and after doctor Stefan you just don't want to forget this part sealed on the drugs after they put the show oh my gosh so many great apparently so many great maybe the Apex of my life saying that what was funny was now I was with Chen because she arrive to the hospital they take field back they're going to administer some drugs because they have to get your shoulder muscles to relax they have to get you to relax because now to put it back in is going to be uncomfortable after it's been out for a while sure so when they let us back in field is laughing he is high as a kite having a good time having a good time those were something thanking everyone and I will tell you this America that the doctor told us after he comes up to chape it he goes some people say a lot of you know a lot lot of crazy things when they're under the effects of these drugs he goes all this one said was I love my wife I love my wife over for I love my wife she was and she she was great as well and uh you know the reality is I'm probably going to be close to a zero as a parent uh for a little stretch here which that that that's been you know I'll deal with the other stuff work's been great uh that's probably the part that you know in the in the what 15 hours since we've been home has been the hardest reality and it will be for a little while here but I know chapen is going to you know carry the load like she usually does anyways uh for us
