    Brad Radke pitching half a year with a partially torn labrum has to be in the conversation.

    I've got a buddy who was a pitcher in college who had that injury, and he simply couldn't believe that Radke kept throwing.

    Gatti definitely merits consideration. That is one dude who could take a punch. And then deliver a better one.

    Kerri Strug.
    Pat Summitt.

    ... and liked to make sure every single person in the world knew about it. Classic McNair ... "Well, we struggled today, but I am battling a bad shoulder, knee, rib, pinkie and hangnail -- not to make excuses, though."
