00:00How has the injury maybe changed the way that you view the game?

00:19You know, if I want to keep doing this, I have to have fun doing it.

00:32So that's the mindset I'm trying to bring to the table.

00:36How much of it was fun before, like winning's always fun, but in general, was it as fun before you got hurt?
