Only if you join me on the hike and share a box of teddy grahams with me.
Refer to your first post about Kobe getting paid while tearing his acl or whatever you said.

That's an assumption. How do you know for sure Kobe or any pros go 100% at pick up game just because they hates to lose lol?
He said or she said stories doesn't count. Unless you were there to witness any betting between the pros. I doubt they were going 100% at it.
Steve Kerr once beat Jordan in practice. I doubt Jordan was playing 100% to win lol.

OK, man. I'll be sure and tell my super experienced , highly regarded surgeon frrom UCLA that ACBoyz from Niketalk thinks he gave me some bad information about Achilles' tears.
And I appreciate you backtracking and acting like you didn't say anything I should be defensive about. But I''m not sure that anyone would interpret "getting hurt paying pick-up ball. SMH. At least Kobe getting paid," as a positive comment.
But thanks for your contributions to keeping this thread active.

Why are people even reading what ACClownz has to say
Anyways, it sounds like a lot of you guys who tore theirs after me are back to living completely normal lives, I did a lot of walking in manhattan today and just got back home (did a decent amount of cardio yd, no running though) my tendon is sore as ffff

Sorry to hear you're sore, but still good to know you're out there walking.
By the way, sidenote, as a native Californian who doesn't travel much, I had the chance to walk around in Manhattan once close to Christmas and thought it was awesome.
With some light snow flurries coming down, it was pretty easy to get into the holiday spirit. The 80 degree whether we're having right now in LA doesn't exactly make it feel like Christmas.

I'm 9 months out man I better be walking 
For those of you guys that went the surgical route, is your tendon shaped nothing like before? Mine seems fat and thick and the contours really aren't there in the back of my foot

That's how mine feels right now, but I figured it might thin out and get more normal over time and with physical therapy. Maybe not.

Mine is thicker than the non-repaired side. It get's a little better with therapy but to really get is down you need to get a lot of scar tissue massages.

It hurt, but not as badly as I would have expected based on things I'd heard. I didn't scream or fall to the ground in pain. Pain-wise, it wasn't worse for me than a badly sprained ankle. In fact, it was because the pain wasn't worse that I didn't think I tore it at first.

So what did your surgeon say then? Your achilles just popped because your time was up?
I wonder how come a healthy achilles can tear easily without external force, sudden torque or sign of deterioration? I would like to hear the answer.
And I said is it sucks tearing your achilles in a pick up game. Which is 100% true. And thus afterward i also said my condolences. How you take it is out of my control.
