So, I know it has been about a two weeks since I have posted, and for that I apologize.In a shitty game versus Savannah on Nov. 15, I fucked my left knee and haven't been around rugby since. As a result, I didn't feel it correct to write about my team when I haven't been around practice or other related activities.
Actually, my knee isn't as bad as both I and the Athletic Trainer on the side of the pitch first thought, but it's still not great.
I have torn my MCL, but not completely, so it will heal itself.
When I first hurt it I thought about writing a log of my recovery over the weeks, but since I should be back on the field in 8-10 weeks and there is no surgery involved, it simply wouldn't be that interesting.
Also, I think this was just an excuse to post pictures of my X-rays. I love X-rays of my left knee because I have two huge screws in it from the first time I killed it when I was 17.
Since I hurt myself I have thought about several topics, however they just didn't seem worthy of my time.
I was going to write about Scotland playing in the Fall Test Series -- but how many times can you write that Scotland played up to the standard of superior opposition and still ended up losing... oh yeah and conquered the might of the maple syrup-eating, Mounty-lovin', rugby-suckin' Hosers from America's toupee.
I was also going to rant about people making fun of the size of my crutches -- but even railing against that gets old!
Anyway, I am back... if you care.

Mike, I really hope you've already fully recovered and are finally back to the pitch. I've been looking around online for more stuff about the most common injuries sustained from playing rugby games. My daughter and her girl cousin has been proud enthusiasts of a women's rugby league for a while, so much that they wanted to have a training. It's actually fine with me, but you know, this contact sport and all. It's intense as it is challenging, yes?
