Hard to believe that 20 years ago today, I was standing on the sidelines of only my 4th NFL game, which happened to be Super Bowl XXXV. So much happened so fast that week, on the field and behind the scenes, ending in a 34-7 win over the New York Giants (mild childhood team growing up). Unfortunately, our attempt to get back to Tampa this year fell short in Buffalo a couple weeks ago.
Since that Super Bowl win, I have gotten to experience another Super Bowl (XVII) and 20 more years working with a great organization and some of the best of the best in sports medicine. In fact, I still have the honor of working with Dr. Leigh Ann Curl and Dr. Andy Tucker, who have continued with the sports medicine team since that victory. I have to thank many in this picture and others currently working with the Ravens for the initial opportunity and continued support. While this may be the “off-season” now, the work never stops. I know I will be watching this Super Bowl a little differently, having been there 20 years ago today…
