    Welcome to mens sport for the last 10 trillion years. These soccer women whine so much.

    Is she talking sexual abuse or verbal abuse because the players were not listening to the coaches? Two very different problems that require different responses. If it is the first, castrate the coaches. If it is just being yelled at for bad performance, toughen up.

    Lol sorry for your pain,that said it brought to mind:

    I, dummy, ran a knife deep into my Palm under thumb scraping wax off a jar.
    Hubby being a clean freak INSISTED it needed ...RUBBING ALCOHOL POURED INTO IT!
    Picture my running around the kitchen table yelling get away from me,kids standing back laughing. He literally chased me out the door. I had car keys in hand. I drove myself to the ER. Told them what occurred with the crazed alchol for everything hubby. As they stitched me up they offered me this, to bring hubby down the next time he gets a deep wound and they'd happily show him the joys of rubbing alcohol in a deep open wound...Hahaha
    Got to love him he meant well .

    At my first orthopedic consultation for my shoulder. My last season was destroyed my covid and other nonsense. I'll find out today if I need surgery and risk this season as well

    Toughen up or quit, the coaches aren't there to be your friends when you reach that competitive level.

    My wife thinks I am brain damaged because stuff like that does not hurt, I don't use novocain at the dentist don't take pain meds unless it is real bad.

    Ouch. They may give you a series of injections first. I had 3, and the 3rd worked so well for me that it has thwarted surgery two years so far.
    Best of luck at your consultation.

    They wanted to do shots and I decided to push through and just hit the gym to fix it.

    Square that shoulder away. A locked up shoulder sucks. If you get surgery in the next couple of months you have a great shot at next season. Or just use a crossbow and have fun.

    Was eating and bit down on solid matter, freaked me out thinking it was a chunk of bone. Got to looking at it and it's a freaking tooth, start getting pissed off a damn tooth was in my food and then get a text. Brother tells me my mom fell and was taken by ambulance to hospital, sister was there with her.

    Realize the tooth is my crown and calm down a bit there, then sister texts me about mom falling. X-rays showed a break in lower leg just above the ankle and it was already set in place, so as long as nothing changes during healing no surgery needed at this time.

    Have to wait until tomorrow to call dentist to get crown reglued.

    Wide range of emotions over a 20 minute stretch.

    The crown thing may end up being a good thing though. Now that it's out, my bite feels normal again. I think they may need to grind it a bit to get a better match to molar above, pretty sure it was too high and likely what caused it to dislodge.

    I just hope they don't charge me, some do and some don't.
