Charlie Davies Makes it Back

1 year and 5 months ago Charlie Davies was sitting in a Virginia hospital bed with a lacerated bladder, multiple facial and skull injuries, broken ribs, and a broken femur. Last night he scored two goals in his first real game back on the pitch for DC United. This is why sports are unreal. They give us moments like this one. Nowhere else, outside of hollywood, can you publicly see a man at his lowest moment, down and out, basically on his death bed, and then see him again so soon after, through hours of hard work and painful days, rise from the ashes and do something truly magical. Maybe 3 and I are still emotional from yesterday's tough loss, but watching this I can say there wasn't a dry eye between us. This man was dead to rights, but rallied. Makes you wonder why we all can't have this same resolve and accomplish great things. Dude's inspiring. So Charlie Davies we salute you.
