The question is, is it the true story? "Rose missed Monday’s practice after he needed 10 stitches to close a gash suffered when he said he rolled onto a knife while eating an apple in bed." Full story: http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/fullcourtpress/2008/12/rose-injured.html
This will go on the list of odd and embarrassing injuries (my favorite is the baseball player who had a nightmare about spiders, sleep walked, and fell down the stairs). Moral of the story, use beds for their intended purposes!
Yeah I think that was Glenallen Hill, and he might have walked through a glass screen door or something like that back when he was with the Blue Jays. Why do we remember this crap, crandc? Indeed. Beds should only be used for smothering the elderly while they try to sleep. Ed O.
if you are going to sleep with knives, you better be careful about the type of apples you invite into your bed.
I am just glad KP drafted the old man with no teeth. No need for knives to eat apple sauce. Just sayin' EDIT - Just hope I am not going to hear about him poking his eye out with a spoon or something. Tfu tfu, touch wood.
he probably got in a bar fight at a strip club and got stabbed in the face while drinking sour apple puckers.
I guess it's the price of fame -- every stupid move is news. Yesterday, I got a little excited about a new bluetooth headset and cut my finger opening the package. If I were a pitcher (and it was actually baseball season), I'd have had to miss a start and that would've made the news. Anyway, who gets excited about new headsets? I'm such a loser that it hurts me.
I had one of those moments two weeks ago. I was listening to my voicemail on my Sidekick and I was folding laundry with my hands so I had the phone wedged between my ear and my shoulder. I moved wrong, though, and the phone started to slip, so I reached up to catch it, hitting it JUST right so that the phone "flipped" open. And it flipped open directly into my left eye. I could barely see out of it for the next 24 hours and it took almost a week for it to get back to a pain-free state. Ed O.
Very very fishy story, to say the least. Who cuts an apple in bed? Who even cuts an apple, for Pete's sake? And how could a kitchen knife create a wound that requires 10 stitches? The story says the Bulls' trainer drove Rose to the hospital at 8 am (!) So who wakes up in the morning, goes to the kitchen and gets a knife, then returns with knife and apple to bed?
