sprained groin

nothing like playing 6+ hours of sports to get your mind off of a girl (Tears are a terrible secret weapon.. I have NO defense...). So I hopped on my friends rec-league team and played in an all-day tournament. I played really well until the 5 hour-mark where I ran onto some divet, tried to catch my balance and instead sprained my groin something serious...
And then I let the big fat dude who shouldn't be scoring on anyone, score on me...
But we won that game, and ended up finishing 2nd of 8 teams, so I'm pretty happy with our performance. It was gutsy, and well hustled points, and I really established a reputation for making some great instant throws. In pre-game competition, I did manage to throw a disk 70 yards. (some guy blew that out of the water with a 90 yard throw).
Alright.. so back to the point.. that groin was rediculous. We went out for drinks afterwards and just hobbling to the bar to get a drink became a chore. Forget about dancing. hobbling home from the metro? well probably took about 4x as long as I needed it to take. And today i've been a debbie downer applying ice and tiger balm to keep the swelling down. Who knew this little thing could keep me down?
