Bye Bye BBall

In the final weeks before a race, you really put a premium on your health and wellness. As such, I have given up pick-up basketball. It is a lot of fun, but it is also the one sport that I have visited the emergency room after playing. A couple years ago, I caught an elbow right below the eye and had to have stitches to sew up my face. I remembered this yesterday, as I delivered the elbow.

I boxed this guy out, who was trying to big body me up down low, and he came around after I went up for the rebound and his nose met my elbow. His nose was bleeding. I had not Kobe-bowed him and I didn't break his nose, but I was glad it wasn't my nose.

Tennis anyone?
