I think I can handle getting pushed down."Thunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09708792562446136381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440694009017367434.post-82290913922244800492014-02-01T15:40:11.252-05:002014-02-01T15:40:11.252-05:00Well, poop.

Brown suffered from many medical problems in that eye from that point on including being legally blind for 3 years.
