I've got two artificial knees, I have an artificial shoulder, and I'm reasonably healthy given the damage I've done to myself. Everything hurts.

I'm pleased to say my knee feels a lot better. It's still not back to normal, and I don't know if it ever will be, but I'm learning to deal with it instead of expecting it to be like it was before.

Having a normal knee would make life a lot easier.

All my football injuries now have arthritis in them.

I never had a serious injury that kept me out of a big competition. Now everyone has injuries - to their feet or their knees or their backs.

My knee is almost back to normal. I am back in training.

I hurt my left knee playing left tackle. I had surgery on my right knee.

As an athlete, you are literally programmed to endure a specific amount of pain.

Knee replacement is serious stuff. And it actually could have made me worse.

I have osteoarthritis, which especially affects my knees.
