 I think we can all agree that what Alex Smith is doing is tremendous. Coming back from a near-death experience to now be the quarterback of a team vying for a playoff spot in the NFL. So maybe think about in the four major sports, players that overcame injury or illness to make a comeback to continue their career at a high level. And where would Alex Smith fit in that tough time? And is he in there? Yes. Can I go first, Michael? Sure. I would like to say Mario Lemieux Hodgskins. Mario Lemieux is number two. Good poll, Peter. Not only did he have lymphoma, but he had a spiral disc herniation, a chronic hip flexor that forced him into retirement in 1997. He came back in 2000, played five more years, not nearly at the level he was before, but still a two-time all-star in those five years and still an outstanding player until finally retiring because of injury in 2006. Mario Lemieux. Le Manifique. Number two. Well, I mean, my guess would be Alex Smith if he's not number one, the whole list is fraudulent. Well, he's not number one. Wow. But he's number five. Oh, wow. You know what? Stop. Let's see where this goes here. Who are you taking out? I'm taking out anybody when it comes to Alex Smith. Been through a lot, and we'll see how it all works itself out. Just getting on the field was a major accomplishment, and now he's playing, you know, at a level where I agree with Michael that he's probably better prepared for this than Daniel Jones is. It's unreal. I have him at number five, and certainly a work in progress. And if he ever found, you know, continued to play in the next four games the way he's played, he's number five with the bullet. Now think about it like this. Last year, he was stuck sitting in a suite eating oatmeal raisin cookies with Den Snyder. Now he's down there with Chase Young and Montez Sweat, one of the important football games. Right there? All right. Injury or illness? I know there's like a really massive one staring me right in the face. Don, I'm going to ask for one thing. Sorry, it's sort of like the phone a friend. Can I get the sport breakdown? Oh, we've got a football win. We've got two baseball. Okay. Go ahead, Michael. You can go ahead. How about Bo Jackson with his hip? No. I'm not sure. Didn't even think about it. What about the comeback part, Michael? We've got the... He came back. He came back and hit a home run. His first came back. Yeah, but it wasn't the same. He put the ball on his mom's headstone. Well, it's a funny story. If he had come back to play football, that'd be something. I love baseball. You said it was a baseball guy. That was my baseball guess. All right. I also said it was a football guy, so no. Dave Winfield, back surgery, played many years after that. Didn't even enter my mind. We're losing. This is going to get ugly fast. And guys, I apologize. I have mango stuck in my teeth. I'm working on it. I think Michael should definitely get the baseball guys. Peter would not get one of the baseball guys. I wouldn't get either of the baseball guys? The football guy you'll agree with, but probably completely forgot. Can I get a position on the football player? Oh, we've got a running back. I'll even give you the year the injury happened, 1999. Well, then I should get this. Oh, injured in 1999. Similar to what happened to Alex Smith. A leg shatter. Broken ankle infection. They had to reconstruct the ankle. Missed two full seasons. Came back to rush for 1,200 yards in 2001, and then played four more seasons after that. And they had to rebuild the ankle bone with parts of his knee. Oh, my God. It's like the game operation. Right. Except not. How about for baseball? Because, you know, you're so beholden to Nancy. How about Buster Posey? Well, Buster Posey was a great story, Michael. He broke his leg getting hit against the Marlins at home play. Not only did he win the comeback player of the year the next year, Michael, but he won the MVP. But not on the list. But not on the list. No. They actually created a rule because of Buster Posey. No, I understand. Significant. But I don't know. I got one. I guess I got a baby. Patastrophic is the injury. I don't think there was any doubt he was going to return. Tommy John. See, Tommy John, Michael did. That's why it's not the show. It's the Michael K Show. Tommy John is not only on the list, it's number one. And here's why. He was given a 100 to one shot of coming back after having a surgery that was not by his name, but then became Tommy John's surgery with the. It was just the surgery. It was just the surgery. Right. But it was experimental at the time. And not only did he come back against 100 to one odds, Michael, but he went on to win 164 games after the surgery in 1975. Also came back to the Yankees and committed three Arizona one play. But that's just neither here nor there. Well, he was Tommy John. 45. Number one. That's why I said neither here nor there. Peter, you got to join in on this one. I'm Alex Smith. Five. We have one more baseball, one more football. Yeah. Peter will not get the baseball. Which could be that could be telling for Michael for the kind of the zone it's in. You're going to kick yourself. You know the name of the football player. You're just not thinking. It's just you're just not in the headspace for Peter. But I think when I give it to you, you'll be like, maybe you just didn't know the extent of the injury. Just forgetting completely. You want me to give it? By the way, I mean, did you consider when you were keeping it for major sports, there was no Tiger consideration? There was no Tiger. Well, see, that's the thing. If I opened that up to other sports, it would be very, very heavy lifting. Because what do you do with Lance Armstrong? I mean, the guy was given a 40% chance to live with his cancer. But then the PDs kind of like ruin the comeback story. Although you can make the case just participating after going through that would be enough to be on the list, this really opens up a lot of that I wasn't going to go there. Good comment. Good conversation. Thank you. 99. 99, baby. I do not, baby. So Michael's taken a knee on the football. But the 99, baby. If I give it, if I give the era, Michael, I think you might be able to get the baseball. All right, give me the era. Late 60s. Tony Canigliaro? There you go. Number three. Good pull. Wow. Hit in the face with a pitch by the Angels, Jack Hamilton, crushed his face, damaged his retina. They said they could hear the thud throughout Fenway Park when he was hit by the pitch, made the cover of sports illustrated with his big black eye. Remember that, Michael? Yep. Missed the entire 1968 season. He was never the same. Was never the same and unfortunately, died very young at the age of 45. He had heart situations. Actually, he was in the business for a while. When I say the business, the industry, he batted in 69. He came back, hit 20 home runs and 82 RBI's and played until 1975. But it was a miracle he even survived that they thought he was going to die on the field that day. Tony Canigliaro, number three. You all listen. It's time for me to move on. All right, I'm going to move on. I can't think of the run. Number four. Give me one second to think of it. OK. Just send your text, Rick, and say, let me find Gaby the team. Go ahead. He was a running man. I think I got it. OK, so you think that nobody texted me. OK. I'm looking at names. Didn't McGahy have an unbelievably terrible injury? Will this McGahy? Yeah, but not back then. Oh, yeah, in 99. It was 99? Yeah. Well, he didn't make the list. Well, that was a lot of snagging. 99, baby. A lot of looking back for your San Francisco 49ers. Ricky Waters? No. I'm going to give it to you. Give it. No. Hold on. So it's post Roger Craig free Ricky Waters? Oh, this is 99, so this is after Ricky Waters. All right, go ahead. Garrison Hurst. Oh, yeah. 1,206 yards and 1,001 with the Niners after having to reconstruct his ankle after an infection. That is my top five. Damn it. John Lesnar.
