That was the worst sports Injury I've ever seen

Something otherworldly seeing human limbs bend in ways other than normal. Hope the kid has a full recovery.

Yeah some kind of defect maybe? Remember when Dave Draveckys arm almost came off when throwing a pitch and it turned out he had a cancerous tumor in the arm that weakened it?

That was AFTER Dravecky had already had radiation and chemo.

At least get facts right before you post crap like this....

 

[hawkeyebob62]

I thought of that after seeing the replay.

He was turning in the air. To me it looked like he was trying to avoid the foul, just placed his foot wrong while his body was twisting.

"Defect" or not, it's a terrible injury. I sure hope he can come back, but if not, that he doesn't suffer long-term "major" disability.

Neck injuries ain't so stomach churning, its more like a knockout they just don't get up from.

If seeing the Darryl Stingley hit by Jack Tatum doesn't turn your stomach, nothing will.

I think the Dave Dravechy talk has to be pretty spot on.... there HAS to be some sort of underlying problem there.

Dravecky's injury occurred during a comeback from chemo/radiation. It was NOT how his cancer was discovered.

Much much worse. Breaking bones in half is much worse than tearing a few ligaments.

You can come back just as strong from a broken leg. Livingston had an incredibly promising career and it was ruined. There's no coming back from that.

At least give me a heads up before you come at me with a huge boner.

Easily the worst I've ever seen. Theisman was bad (imagine what that would have looked like if it had happened with all the angles and HD TVs of today's world). Willis McGahee and Shaun Livingston were worse than that. But this one won't be topped, IMO. I almost wanted to vomit when I saw it.

Ware's career is done. You don't come back from broken bones like THAT. That's a life-altering injury.

ESPN is now reporting that he broke his Tibia in two different places and it will take him a year or more to heal.

They will insert a pin and plates during surgery. His leg will come out stronger than it was before the injury.

Where is Meat? I'm fairly certain full recovery is possible.

Owen Hart was worse.

Owen Hart was worse.

Dude, that's low even for you.

Dude, that's low even for you.

How the heck is that low? It's a fact you nimrod. Owen hart fell to his death so yes, it was in fact worse.

Oh HI, Scooter. I'm so glad you decided to crawl out of your hole to reply. I always enjoy your childish name calling and your below average intelligence.
