But as far as I can recall I’ve only mentioned one time where I knocked somebody out in the bar. On top of that about 20 + people agreed they’d have done the same.
Ever have somebody you’d do just about anything for spit in your face in public?

BTW I didn’t fight alot (more than 2-3 times) in college at all. Also, I’d like to point out that I was a young dick with a bad attitude and while I’m not ashamed of that time in my life, I’ll never go back to it.[/quote]
Yeah. I know what you mean. I was more like a dick by association. I hung around guys that were dickheads because I knew I would probably get in a fight at some point. I was more like a dumb hillbilly that just liked to fight. I’m still a dumb hillbilly but a wife and four kids takes some of the fight out of you. BTW, I was at WVU in 2000 and 2001. Grad school in Electrical Engineering.
Well, since this old-assed thread got bumped, I’ll contribute mine. I have only had 1 break, and 1 stress fracture. The bone I broke was my damned humerus of all things. And I did it while engaged in some testosterone-induced idiocy. I was fucking armwrestling. I had never heard of this actually happening, otherwise I might have quit before I torqued my bone.
I’ve fractured my thumb in february when I was playing hockey, and got tripped going full speed, sliding right into the goalpost, the first thing to hit was the area between my thumb and forefinger… that left a little swelling. Also, our idiotic school athletic trainer told me it wasn’t broken when the crap was swollen to hell!
I went to the school nurse like 4 days later when I had been icing it a ton and using arnica gel, so the swelling was down a bunch, she took one look and told me i’m getting in x-ray in 10 mins. She then called the athletic trainer a retard and asked me why I listened to him. haha
I also think I broke my toe, but I never got it x-rayed because there’s nothing you can do anyways. I was in fourth grade, and some kid went flying into me during gymnastincs in gym class (yes I always was the best athlete in gym class…) and I slipped off of a springboard, and my big toe caught on the edge, so the pressure from the rest of my foot and body pulling down on just my big toe snapped it I imagine.

I also nearly lost the ability to move 4 of my fingers through sliced tendons.
Any of you guys have any deformities from your broken bones.
My left arm is deformed. [/quote]
My right arm is, but it’s not that noticeable. It screws up my barbell lifts a bit, though.
Broken right humerus. The bone shards almost broke the skin, good thing I am left handed. Broke it in a car wreck, my friend was driving and she lost control of the vehicle. So down we went the hill, much like Jack and Jill, tumbling end over end at about fifty miles an hour till we hit the bottom, about fifty four feet from the road. Totaled the car (she hadn’t even had an oil change on it yet). Now I know what it is like to be in a dryer.
Broken nose, probably some broken toes. Just recently fractured a thoracic vertebra… yeah, lots of swimming for me for the next three months. Maybe upper-body lifting in a month or so.
Hmmm…
Nose 3 times
Clavicle
All fingers except the thumbs, some of them several times.
Right arm 3 times
Left arm twice
A couple of ribs
Leg
Ankle
and big toe
Most painful was the big toe which seemed strange to me, for some reason I figured the pain would relate to the size of the bone - apparently not.
Ribs suck too… took 3 to 4 months to completely heal up.
I am pretty tame. Only broke a collarbone and an ankle while doing some stupid shit on a sportbike.
Actually the ankle was quite messed up, it took me several months before I could put the foot down. I still have hardware in that foot that was not in the original design.
Right pinky, probably the last time I played effing basketball lol.
Couple of side ribs. Took a hard roundhouse kick during muay thai. Were not broken but I had breathing/moving problems for a month.
Other than that, no breaks. I’ve always taken my calcium and drank milk. I’ve gotten away relatively fine from some serious accidents, majority involving my knees.
