Kankle
So, Sunday me and a bunch of the fellas got together for a backyard football game down at the field. We ended up with at one point, 18 people. It was a standard game, kind of tame though with no real big hits or sweet ass plays. Hell there even wasn't any major injuries that usually happen when all us out of shape guys get together for the first game of the fall. All that changed a couple hours into the contest when shockingly, I was the guy who got hurt.
That's from today, which shockingly looks better than yesterday. The play on which I fucked up my ankle happened so fast I don't know exactly which way it bent. All i know is I had burned the corner covering me and also gotten behind the safety running a deep post route. The QB under threw the ball so I had to stop then jump back for it. The 2 guys covering me also jumped. All 3 of us collided in mid-air then fell the the ground, with my poor ankle underneath all of us.
Foolishly, I continued to play after trying to walk it off for a minute. Then I also foolishly played hockey later that night at 8 (scoring 2 goals and getting a couple assists in the process). Monday I worked on it. Today I finally went to the ER and got it x-rayed and what not. Primary diagnosis is a severe sprain, with a possible stress fracture/ligament tear. I have a follow up appointment tomorrow morning where I will find out the full extent of things but for now I'm off work for at least tomorrow and who knows how long after that.
