The Classic Bad Teammate

It's the talented rookie who insists on playing, while injured.

The guy who covers up his injury, so as not to lose his spot.

A player unwilling to sit down, and be honest about an injury, because he " wants to play."

The person who thinks his "toughness" will be honored, if he plays while hurt.

Meanwhile;  he can't hit and he can't run.

He, unintentionally, aggravates a minor injury until it becomes a "consuming " injury.

Soon, he is under the knife for something that, with proper rest, would have healed.

He misses his second consecutive season.

An asshole, in truth.

Alphonso, you implication that Bird is a " bad teammate " and. "Asshole" looks a bit harsh and off the mark.
