Along with staisfying my hunger, this story also reminded me of a few other ridiculous injuries from the past couple years. Check some other classics at these two places 1 and 2

Here’s Jeff Kent staying country in San Fran back in 2002, as he broke his wrist washing his truck that had a lift kit.

Adam Eaton of the Padres missed a start in 2001 after stabbing himself in the stomach while trying to open a new cd.

How about Joel Zumaya making like a 12 year old and injuring himself by playing too much Guitar Hero.

My favorite injury however would have to be the mishap that occurred in the Jacksonville Jaguars locker room in 2003. In Jack Del Rio first season he used the slogan “Keep Chopping Wood” which included the introduction of an ax and stump in the locker room as a symbol. Punter, yes punter, Chris Hanson found this to be an appropriate venue to do some actual chopping like something out of the Great Outdoor Games (they really are great). While weilding the ax, Hanson mistakenly gashed his kicking foot requiring surgery, stiches and 4-6 weeks off the field. Del Rio should just be happy that Ax Men wasn’t on back in ’03, might have given them too many ideas, namely John Henderson.
