Top 10 Dumbest Sports Injuries

I saw a small link to this from Yahoo and gave it a read. I thought it was somewhat funny to see just how dumb these injuries are.

Top 10 dumbest sports injuries - Sports

I thought this one was pretty funny...

Quote:
9. Ken Griffey Jr.: There is not enough space in this paper to list all of Griffey's injuries, but one stands out as the funniest. Ken once missed a game after his protective cup slipped, and pinched one of his testicles. Isn't the cup supposed to stop you from getting hit where it hurts? Maybe that's the real reason why Griffey can never get healthy. (He also once strained his back lifting boxes).
And here were the "Honorable Mentions." Personally, I think these were funnier than most of the others in the main list.

Quote:
Honorable Mentions:

- Pitcher Adam Eaton stabs himself while attempting to open a DVD in 2001.

- Vince Coleman misses the 1985 World Series after getting caught in the tarp machine.

- Wade Boggs misses games after hurting himself putting on his cowboy boots.

- Spanish goalie Santiago Canizares drops a bottle of cologne on his foot and misses the 2002 World Cup.

Oops, can a mod add a letter u in "Dumbest" to the thread title? I guess I made a typo.

I pulled a hamstring once shooting pool. It was real cold out and hot in the bar I was working in that night so I was constantly moving and going out for "smokey" walks. I had to stretch real far to bury a match ending eight ball and it just snapped.

Definitely one college night I wish I didn't drop multiple hits of acid.

I think this one takes the cake. It just happened, but if it happened a few weeks back or something I believe it would have been on that list.

It's kinda funny cause I was reading that like 20 mins ago going Wtf.

But I went early to the mets game about 2 weeks ago it got rained out but the Texas Rangers ran out on the tarp and started sliding across it and doing back flips..

And during the batting practice the mets bullpen were playing hacky sack with a baseball, kinda funny to watch but now I know how they really get hurt during batting practise. And probably why they suck....
