AbeFroman Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 AM1000 is reporting that Kerry wood has fallen out of a hot tub and will miss the beginning of spring training for for pitchers and catchers. This is NOT A JOKE. 4-6 days with bruised ribs. Is there any other appropriate way to respond to this other than to laugh hysterically?

KevHead0881 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I know this will probably amount to nothing, but still... Wood hurt in fall from hot tub, out for a few days MESA, Ariz. -- Oft-injured Kerry Wood is out again -- this time because of a flub in a hot tub. The Chicago Cubs pitcher is not expected to throw off the mound for a few days after he slipped this week getting out of a hot tub at home. Wood landed on his stomach and chest. "It was just a little spill," Wood said Thursday. "I didn't think anything of it. Nothing's wrong. It's just going to be a few extra days. My arm feels great. My body feels good." Wood said he probably would not have thrown off the mound until Friday had he not gotten hurt. He participated in most drills on Thursday when pitchers and catchers worked out for the first time. Bothered by an injured right shoulder the past three seasons, Wood is being converted to a reliever after being limited to four starts last year.

SoxFan562004 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Gettin' in the hot tub.... OHHHHHHH HOT!!!!!!!!! http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2767126 (espn.com's story) This is hysterical. We'll see if this pans out. I remember Kent injured his wrist "washing his truck" and it turned out he was doing something against his contract (Was it riding a motorcycle?)

Balta1701 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Yeah, just like when that Barmes guy got hurt falling down the stairs & lost the ROY award because of it. Isn't it amazing how people who are under contracts requiring them to not do stupid things wind up with the wierdest sorts of injuries? Almost mind blowing, in fact.

ChiSoxLifer Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Now, if Wood was doing the towel throwing drill while in the hot tub, he could've dried himself off much better and prevented slippage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When that happens, you make up some silly story that no one will ever question, like you fell down some stairs while carrying groceries, or hurt yourself in a hot tub, something like that.

Except if your Kerry Wood. With him, he probably just got hurt for waking up this morning. He has to tell lies because of the embarrassing fact that he as fragile as a house of playing cards.

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Somewhere a Cardinals fans is likely making a spoof of this already. ... Perhaps Kerry Wood should be cryogenically frozen until scientists can find a way to protect him from himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
