the worst sports injury you have ever seen??? what is it?

[madbomber31]

Well i know that isn't right because the Expos have not made the post-season since 1981.

"He was awarded a full-time job in left field when Montreal traded away Ivan Calderon before the 1993 season, and played regularly until suffering a gruesome leg injury while rounding first base at Busch Stadium in September. Alou's spikes caught in the Astroturf, breaking the fibula in his left leg and dislocating his ankle to boot. The injuries required the insertion of two metal screws in his leg."

shit... who was it who broke his leg in two spots in the playoffs with the phils or just before???? god damn, i need to check out some rosters when i get to work.

I think it was Sally Struthers on Celebrity Super Stars...

She and two guys from WKRP in Cinncinatti were supposed to be running this relay race against Cheryl Tiegs, O.J. Simpson, and The old white guy from the Jeffersons....

Anyway, Sally stepped on some gravel, and twisted her ankle! And on top of that, she then fell and skinned her leg... it was awful..

She had to be carried over to the staging area, everyone was crying and shit....they laid her down on some grass and gave her some gatorade.

I think she was finally ok but it was terrible!

Grant Hill and his chronic ankle injury.
Going on 2 seasons now with him riding that million dollar bench.

Sid Vicious's lower leg sideways snap.

That was the one I thought of as well. I think I still have it on MP3 somewhere. Probably not technically a sports injury, but pretty nasty to watch nonetheless. (They must have replayed it at least 20 times.)

The Monday Nighters came to mind as well as Sid Viscious, but
in my opinion, ECW's infamous "Mass Transit Incident," makes those look somewhat tame.

As many know, wrestlers routinely blade their foreheads to similate what Jim Ross would call "busted open." Being Erich "Mass Transit" Kulas' first match, he wanted his opponent to do it for him. New Jack (his opponent), cuts deep through the muscle and severes a couple arteries. Kulach screams in agony and the blood flows (understatement). New Jack smiles and refuses to stop the match.

"The ever concerned ECW crowd simply chanted "you fat @#%$" while Kulas was being treated. "


DAMN!
