Since we are dicussing this I thought I would add. I have to say the worst thing I could imagine happening is the death of someone on the floor I was working, playing or watching. I have seen broken arms, ankles, tooo many sprains and dislocations to count but the most drastic injury I was ever witness to was as follows.

BV game, intense play down low for most of the game. The posts were evenly mached and going back and forth at each other with neither one gaining any advantage. Nothing illegal was happening just good post play and good footwork. Well its 3rd period and Visitor post goes for a shot down under the basket. Home forward comes across the key to help and jumps up getting his hand caught up in the net. I don't know what or how but he got his fingers tangled and when he came down his middle fingers skin was peeled from the hand to the first knuckle almost to the bone. This was by far one of the most sever avulsions I have seen.

Game was postponed and continued a few days later.
