Promoted but out for the season
 
Been a while since I have been on. Promoted to Certified with the IHSA this season... however, I'm out for the season after being run over by a pick up a few weeks ago.:o Long story, but lets just condense it to this... Yamaha scooter meets Chevy Silverado. Chevy wins. I was on the scooter. Left leg got run over by the front tire from ankle to above knee. Know anyone who wants an official on crutches?:cool:

Ouch! Did you see the video of the University of Iowa lineman who had a similar accident but walked away and played the next weekend?

Missed that one... however, I did walk into the ER and said, "I just got hit by a pickup!"

Here's a link to the video:
Iowa Lineman

Apparently, I was wrong in that he didn't play that weekend.

Ouch!
 
As someone who was runover by a van while walking my dog a few yrs back, I can certainly sympathize with you (lady was talking on the cell phone - she saw the dog and NOT me, nice).

Best wishes on a speedy and full recovery!

Also, I have one word for you - v o l l e y b a l l

Sounds like a country music song. You all get better now. You hear?

I know a guy who had his head run over and he ended up running a shot clock.

My favorite country song is, "It's So Lonely In The Saddle Since My Horse Died." It's sung by Tammy Whynot.
