Arob deserves more credit than many of you are giving him. Some say his initial academic problems are 'strike 1.' Well, many kids struggle in school. Its hard as hell to pass some classes, while working your *** off in sports.
Also, he literally carried the load for the team on gameday. Most of you (and I) have no idea how much that hurts. If you want to try it out, let a buddy whack you a few times with a bat on monday morning before you head out to classes.
Then there's the concussions. If you don't know how these affect a person, read up. Then shut the f up. If he's anywhere close to the same person that he was last summer, he's lucky. He's probably still got a migraine style headache that throbs with pain every time he laughs, coughs, or sneezes. You can't imagine the fear that you feel, because sometimes the symptoms don't lessen until years later.
The fact that he even wants to play ball again is enormously positive... speaking on a emotional level. He could have easily gone of the deep end, never to be seen again.
Show some f.ing respect you d'bags.
