Steve's knee has been much better lately - he played basketball yesterday and played football today with his team. As long as he's running straight and doesn't pivot using that leg he's fine but when he turns on it he can still feel the ligament (we think) that hurts and really has to remember to take it easy.
These are some pictures from his football game today, I like the story this sequence of pictures tells - one - player approaches Steve with the ball:
two - Steve steals the ball
three - Steve takes off with the ball
four - his chances look good and he's definitely out-running that guy behind him, so the knee must feel okay!
Unfortunately the team has started off like alllllllllll the other football teams Steve has played on. It's kind of comical at this point that his teams always lose but it's still very early in the season!
Also on that note he totally got injured elsewhere today, ha ha. He got a kick to the calf and then took a shot from the ball into the same spot immediately afterwards and by this evening he could barely walk and his calf was really swollen. He's been on ice all evening, will probably need to take it easy for a day or two and will probably have a great bruise. The life of a sports lover I suppose.
