Gary Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 With Calvin Pace of the Arizona Cardinals injuring his arm and being unable to play for the rest of the year only because he fell out of his window, I find this to be one of the strangest injuries I have ever heard of. So i'd like to know what the strangest injuries think are the strangest for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsentv Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I can't say anything about real life, but I do know that one of my pitchers was injured for nine days due to diarrhea in a video game. I'm completely serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I'd say I've got a whole bunch. From Vince Coleman getting run over by the tarp machine, to Coleman hitting Dwight Gooden with a golf club, to Larry Andersen having a Jacuzzi-tusion, to Clint Barmes hurting himself carrying groceries, to Sammy Sosa and Goose Gossage sneezing, to Jose Valentine cutting his hand on a pineapple.

Saintsfan Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 My personal favourite is from this year. Just before the 2nd cricket test match between England and Australia the Australians were tossing a rugby ball around. Brad haddin, a reserve on the team tossed a poor pass to Glenn McGrath, who is about the best fast bowler (think fast ball pitcher) in the world. McGrath stepped on a cricket ball that was laying on the ground and hurt is ankle. He missed the game and England won. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HatCityEnforcer Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I can think of a few bizarre ones....actually, some of these are just plain fluffing stupid ways one can hurt themselves...--Glenallen Hill having a nightmare about being chased by spiders and breaking a mirror, cutting himself up pretty good in the process.--Mike Matheny's tangle with the hunting knife--Bob Ojeda maiming himself somehow with a weed whacker--Jeff Kent busting himself up doing wheelies on a motorcycle, then saying he got hurt washing his truck.--Kellen Winslow II's award-winning rendition of "Man Crashing Into Shrubbery On Motorcycle"--Chris Brown and his infamous "strained eyelid" FANTASY TEAMSHousatonic U.

VandyDelphia Mike Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 What was the name of the Milwaukee Brewer pitcher who put himself on the Dl attempting to replicate the stunt of a motivational speaker that involved ripping a phone book in half?Dave Hollins' comeback with the Phillies was de-railed due to a spider bite.Ken Hamlin suffering cranial bleeding due to being hit by a street sign is a newcomer to the list. Okay, that's not strange, just amazingly idiotic.Robert Edwards and beach football at the Pro Bowl... that was a shame.Also, I think Bobby Ojeda was the victim of hedge clippers, not a weed whacker. I imagine he hires landscapers to take care of the shrubbery from now on. NCAA Baseball Champions | 2014, 2019 facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
