Since it's the start of football season and a lot of you will be paying attention to injuries in your fantasy football leagues and such I thought I'd use this weeks Chris' Corner to talk about the difference between some common injuries. Specifically, sprains vs strains. A sprain is something that happens to a ligament (soft tissue that connects bone to bone). A strain is something that happens to a muscle (one of the four hamstrings for instance). These injuries are graded on a scale of one to three. One being micro-tears of the tissue and three being complete disruption of the tissue. Obviously, if your fantasy player has a grade three sprain or strain you better forget about them for a few weeks.
Only a short bit of geek knowledge this week. You must be happy.
As for this week in my world, I guess it's not too bad. I'm glad this is the last week of these four matches in two days business. I've got some players that need to take some stress of their bodies. No worries though, everyone is healthy, all things considered.
On a lighter note, the rivalry between yours truly and LP is at a stalemate! The bus ride to and fro yielded no definitive results. We traded victories playing cards in WAR but there was controversy surrounding the rubber match. Leah claims that Coach Dan meddled with her cards on her trip to the restroom thus negating my amazing comeback from holding only one card. Sour grapes. To be continued!!!!
