Frank, we got between 6-8 inches. My house seems to have been right into the middle of the worst band (which means Cindy's winter voodoo curse seems to have outdone mine, I think). School was delayed. Stupid March, WHY WON'T YOU END??

Was it based on the stuff that Michelle Delio wrote? Or is it unrelated to her?

I am not sure. If my server access does not return though, I can investigate. I just happened to notice an article about it in the paper. And then recognized the exact same subject in the quotes you jsut posted.

IIRC, it was a compound fracture, too.

Yeah, that was the stomach churning part. Leg not supposed to bend that way. Unlike Tony C., Emmett's orbital bone is fine, so it shouldn't affect his vision. But yeah, hard white speroids and head-bones do not go well together.

I am pretty sure I saw the Theismann leg break live. It was obvious from the screen that something was badly bad. Legs are not supposed to bend in the middle of the thigh. It wasn't gory - I recall the shot being a distance one - but it gave a sick ooky feeling.

Also, because I'm about six years old I find it really funny that Joe Theismann broke his thigh live on national tv. Good thing he wasn't Joe Headman, or Joe Cervicalvertebraman.

Oooh, poor Emmett. I hope everything heals quickly and with minimal pain.

And I'm sorry about Frankenbudda's neighborhood asshat infestation.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I have always thought it a crying shame that Joe Theismann didn't win the Heisman trophy. (He came in second to Jim Plunkett.)

I can't even.

Morning, folks.

I've seen the Theismann injury too many damn times and plenty of awful career-ending knee and ankle stuff watching soccer.

Mend-ma to Emmitt. When I was reading of his injury, it reminded me of when I was 8, playing box lacrosse and I took an india rubber lacrosse ball in the eye from about 10 feet away. No fracture thankfully, but they had to put stitches in my eye. (ew) Emmitt is a trooper, he'll be back chucking the old horsehide around before you know it.
