I learned something new yesterday

[Rich]

I had a player get injured from running into a legal screen the other night. I saw it coming and once she was injured, I stopped the game. Coach wanted something.

"She ran into a legal screen. There was no foul."

And with the exception of some fans, that was the end of it.

If people want to avoid all injures, I hear there are openings on the chess team.

Nobody gets hurt in practice, I hear. In any sport. Even chess.

I was discussing injuries tonight with the next crew coming on after my games - particularly rough season for me: one broken leg (fell awkwardly), one broken wrist (kid hit a wall, stupid small gym), a bloody nose (hit hard by the ball), split lip (inadvertent elbow or hand during a rebound). I have had more blood on the court this yr than ever.

We can try our best and it happens.........

obviously, you've never seen the Ruy Lopez opening. Brutal. I strained a pinky once. Of course, that was in junior high and I hadn't stretched out properly.

For once, someone trying to be funny actually is funny. That was good...
