worst gym-class carnage?

Do they still let 10-year-olds play field hockey over there?

I tore some connective something or other in my chest during a HS obstacle course run (me being a stupid 14 yr old boy, I didn't think to go to a doctor). It was pretty painful for weeks, though it taught me that you need whatever I tore to open doors well...I couldn't push a door without being in great pain after it happened.

Yup. Since I was in third grade.

I did 55 sit ups in 60 seconds yesterday. Yea!

Inflicted, hrm, I think I stayed clear of trouble. Although when we were at my house, that was another story. I had a vicious temper as a kid, and one time sent my friend, while we were playing two hand touch football in the street, flying when he beat me deep, catching a pass. I caught up to him and kicked him over and he fell and scraped his knee in the street, then looked at his leg and started shrieking:

"MY SKIN CAME OFF, MY SKIN CAME OFF!", to which my friend replied "that's a leaf, you idiot"

my largely overweight friend was playing me one on one in basketball, meaning anytime he lumbered towards me I usually ducked out of the way, being half his size. So as usual, he blew by me for an easy layup, and in what seemed like slow motion, he went up, skying towards the hoop for the easy 2, and as he started to release the ball, let out an inhuman greasy loud assed fart, and the ball went sailing over the top of the backboard.

In 8th grade or so when there was still a thing called recess, a bunch of us were playing touch football on the grass. I wore a windbreaker with a hood. (Let it be known my style hasn't changed to this day.) I caught a short pass, then made a beautiful juke on my defender and started streaking down the sideline. Being an otherwise slow runner, I had another defender chasing me down. Of course, he decides to grab me by the hood, and some whiplash later etc.

You dont realise how hard your neck muscles work to keep yr head upright til you fuck up yr neck. Owww.

I dove into the bottom of a pool once - (screwin' around) I still have a scar on my brow .. not a huge deal, but mixed with the water, the blood was quite impressive.

Also, I beaned some kid in the head with a baseball when I was about 7. About 5 years later I saw that kid again. He was wearing a helmet because he had been hit in the head with a baseball. I didn't ask details...

4 missing teeth from ice hockey
2 broken noses from ice hockey
1 broken knuckle from ice hockey thats in the middle of my hand
5 broken fingers from ice hockey
numerous sprained wrists and knee sprains
1 broken ankle from ice hockey
numerous stitches in mouth and face from ice hockey
the beginning stages of avascular necrosis in my hip
messed up knees
one bad shoulder

- jammed the middle finger on my right hand playing volleyball (it's still crooked).

I had cut my hand open pretty badly (at home) right between my thumb and index finger and for some reason we were playing frisbee in gym and I reached up to grab it and it hit the cut dead on and blood exploded everywhere. It was gross and made my gym teacher pass out.

- horsing around with my friend before for our school swim meet when I was in 6th grade and somehow cracked my ankle on the side of the pool and fractured it.

So, YES!

I later wrote a letter to the Fayette County division of Parks & Recreations asking that they put grip tape (like on skateboards) on all the pool ladders. They didn't.

I hit one almost straight down (like big leaguers sometimes hit balls off their front foot) that had bizarre spin on it; it hit the carpet and somehow popped up and squared me in the nads. A couple minutes later I puked on the gym floor. I may never have children.

2. Two cracked ribs from a wrestling match, where I got drove off of the mat straight onto a hardwoord floor. Cracked ribs suck.

3. Nasty ass burn from wrestling practice having my leg go up against a steam radiator in middle school. Our wrestling room was in the basement of an ancient school and one wall had steam radiators on them.

5. Both of my pinkys are crooked as all get out from playing line in football.

6. Messed my nose a couple of times while wrestling. It is a bit crooked. Didn't hurt as much as some other injuries, but one time it looked kind of funny as my nose was BLUE.
