BEAVERTON, Ore. – "Obviously, a lot of people looking in at me and this decision will be like, ‘Wow, she’s really stupid.’”
A lot of people, however, don’t know about Thorns FC forward Meg Morris’s decision. Those that do tend to be close to her, and for them, there’s nothing obvious about Morris’s choice, let alone anything obviously stupid.
The risks, though, cannot be ignored. With almost no cartilage remaining in a hip that had to be surgically repaired nearly two years ago, the 25-year-old is facing significant long-term health issues, all of which she’s fully aware.
