Sports fans tend to think in sports terms. Chris Pronger's concussion and subsequent symptoms have taken him away from the Flyers. Not having him out on the ice has been a huge blow to their defense. But it's easy to forget there's a real person with a wife and kids at home under all that badass hockey persona.
Chris's wife Lauren was at the fashion event put on by the Flyers' wives last night and talked about how her husband is dealing with the symptoms and the fact that he's not out there on the ice helping his team. It makes you want to forget about hockey for a while and just hope the guy feels better one of these days simply so he can live a better life.
"We're hoping for a better day tomorrow and at least a couple of good days in a row would be nice."
