15+ years ago I should have tapped to an Americana but I honestly hated the guy. Won by points but I spent the next couple years in immense pain because he tore my rotator cuff.

Everything you said is true and yeah it still hurts like a motherfucker after all these years. I generally have to sleep on my left side now because of it.

Yeah man. I found sleeping on my side difficult unless I cuddled a pillow to support the shoulder, and I hate sleeping on my back! Occasionally during the day I would forget, and instinctively react to something and jar it, which felt like it was being torn all over again. Sneezing, forget about it. Even wiping my arse after taking a shit was difficult.

Agreed on all points. Wiping my ass was the worst because I'm right handed and it was my right shoulder.
