Ewwwww.....insightful. I think you're right, I rather did spell-out my thoughts in such a way that it rather reflects what I'm thinking. I really want to play the sport and I enjoy all the comradary....but the thought of my knee blowing-out again is just agonizing. I think it was slightly weak from my accident some 23 years ago, and now (after this blow-up) it'll be even weaker. At this point, being injured, it's very easy to have issues with imaging playing again...but many people say I'll be back. I'm still concerned my knee will be still weaker and even more prone to this happening again.
Figures, I'd just blown $200 on a nice carbon-fiber hi-tech racquet!
But seriously, of all my activities, racquet is the most dangerous and risky, is the highest impact to the body damage-wise and also returns the least amount of benefits in terms of burning calories & building muscle. Rationally, I should hang-up the racquet.....but I'm just sorting things out.
