Injury Report 8/11/08



As we all know these games can be tough on the body. Sadly three members of Team Going for Gold were injured over the weekend. E.L.L.I.S. 3000, The Crowbar, and Downtown Kevin Brown.

The first to go was Downtown Kevin Brown who wandered off course and began to drink liquor on Friday night. This left Downtown incapacitated much of the next day, leaving him unable to compete. He is expected to make a swift and full recovery. When asked about it, Kevin had this to say, "It was a disappointing weekend. I got real fucked up drinking liquor at a club for a friends birthday, and thus was savagely hung over and did not get many beers in... I'm ashamed of my self. But I will make it up and with a vengeance!"

The second to fall was E.L.L.I.S. 3000 who's tonsils exploded unexpectedly on Saturday night. E.L.L.I.S. 3000 was rushed to a hospital and received an emergency Tonsillectomy Monday morning. More on this fateful story later.

The last, occurring on Sunday afternoon, was Tony, The Crowbar. Around 3:30 p.m. The Crowbar went on a mountain bike ride in an effort to force some of the alcohol out of his body from the previous day. In the middle of the loop The Crowbar hit a rock that was hidden by overgrown trail, sending him over his handlebars where his ribs landed on a rock just in front of him. This resulted in several scrapes on his forearm and the possibility of a cracked rib. When asked whether this would effect his performance, The Crowbar simply responded, "Well, it only hurts when I breathe or sneeze, and I don't breathe or sneeze when I'm drinking, so I should be good." He also mentioned his other injuries were very minor and shouldn't be a problem, adding "Chicks dig scars."
