However, surprisingly Daly did not express displeasure about Tigers’ comments. Daly said, “Not at all. He’s the best player I’ve ever played with or seen. He got his fixed for some reason. No doctor will replace my knee because of a different type of problem. It’s hard to explain why. I’m not a doctor. I just try to do what they say.”
He added, “Osteoarthritis is a tough thing, brother. If my knee was broke, I would have had it fixed. But my situation is totally different. It’s painful as hell is all I can say. As was Tiger’s, I’m sure.” I’d love to walk. I’ve done it for years. I think it’s a disadvantage to ride, anyway. Trust me, I just can’t.” Johns’s words prove his honesty and at the same time his respect for Tiger as an individual.
