I was talking with a young friend today, he played hockey with my son back in atoms, and he had done me a favor so wanted to drop him off a moose garlic sausage....found out he was playing beer league on Sunday, his team winning 5-1 with a couple minutes left...and some idiot decided to go full bore on him. Put him head first into boards from 3 feet out. He got his arm up, but his right elbow is shattered. He spent a couple hours in surgery yesterday, got plates and pins holding it all together. Will be off work at least 3 weeks, months of healing and rehab. Idiot kicked out of league, big deal. Anyway, makes me not wish for anyone to get hurt playing a game. Figured I'd share that, and we can all enjoy the game.
Crappy deal that beer league stuff.

I actually never played hockey.... twas soccer. 2 ACL replacements cause guys figured I was too much of a factor in the match.
