I rarely feel bad for professional athletes because they make a ton of money to play a game. However, when Ryan Howard tore his achilles on the final out of the 2011 NLDS I genuinely felt bad for him. His timetable for surgery and recovery is going to be a long one, and as you can see he can’t even do the simplest things like walk around a grocery store.
I guess we have to applaud Howard for hoping on this motorized cart to do his grocery shopping, but it begs the question; the guy makes millions of dollars a year, you couldn’t hire someone to do your grocery shopping for you?? Hey saving money man, every little bit counts. Here’s to a speedy recovery Ryan, we hope to see you before June 2012.
