The way I miss my daughter Esme is to worry about her. It is not a pleasurable longing. It contorts my body and scrambles my brain, makes me stop breathing, clench my jaw and my fists, it makes me frown, and makes me blind and deaf, in fact entirely without sensory perception.

It's the subconcussive hits, the constant bam, bam, bam that linemen like Suh give and receive.

The subconcussive hits - every single play.
