    That’s what happens when you do house chores while drunk. I once broke my nipple that way!

    This reminds me of the Luc Longley fiasco, where he reported to practice the next day having dislocated his shoulder ‘playing’ in the surf…

    @Tarzan Cooper:
    Pryzbilla tripped and fell in his shower, re-rupturing his patella a little while back.
    Crazy.

    “Tripped over a bag” is PR-speak for “drunkenly punching a wall.” Bet on it.

    Dude has averaged about 60 games per season over his career. Missing 2 months sounds about right.

  • HA!

    260lbs, 5%body fat.. and the bones of an 80year old! He’s broken more bones since he was 15 than anyone I know. Dont think it was caused by a drunken punch (he’s not a big drinker) but probably a frustrated punch to a wall because he hates his wife.
