Pretty cool:

Six months after suffering a stroke and he’s throwing better than 50 Cent and Stephen A Smith. Charlie looks good, doesn’t he? He had to go through an entire rehab stint and it’s great to see him out there again. NBCSP did a great story on Charlie’s recovery, which aired during the pregame show. If I can find it, or they show it again, I’ll drop it in here. It was solid.
