You know that feeling when you tackle a DIY project and it somehow works out against all odds? I’ve been thinking about athletes who’ve pulled off comebacks that give off that same vibe messy at first, but somehow triumphant in the end. Like they took the scraps of their career and rebuilt something solid.
Who comes to mind for you? For me, it’s hard not to think of someone like Alex Smith after that brutal injury. The guy basically had to relearn how to walk, then somehow made it back to the NFL. Or maybe there’s someone less obvious a fighter, a runner, even a surfer who clawed their way back.
Curious to hear your picks. Who’s the ultimate DIY comeback story in sports?
