Phil - I think after your episode we should get all the guys to list injuries to see who is the most busted up … heres my attempt. broke both ankles playing soccer. dislocated little toes on the back of a flip flop. water on the knee, legs in plaster six times due to osgood slatters disease. smashed out a front tooth playing soccer when I collided with a chopper bike at the side of the field. smashed out the front tooth next to it when a suspended ceiling fell on my face. broke my index finger on the tennis court - I was goofing around on a collapsable walker meant for a disabled person with a prosthetic leg and fell head over heels. (this is all so crazy it must be true). had a severe earache when I was a kid - I was prodding the eardrum and pulled out a wasp that had clambered inside my ear when I was asleep, stung my inner ear, and died.
