NHL bets on +1.5 can push? The rangers beat the Devils 4.5 to 3 in a shootout hahahahaComment -
They need to start putting fractions into the lines so I can stay of away from the push. I would have bet the devils +1 and 7/8ths if the price was right.Comment -
People claimed you didn't graduate college because you act like a fukkin child on hereOriginally posted by NittanyLionsFanComment -
NittanyLionsFan, a kid may have just had his career ended on national tv, and you can only refer to him as a scrub who left the game with his team's season on the line? You really are a heartless f.u.c.k. Go ball with your leg messed up like that.Comment -
Okay well first of all I don't act like a child. I actually act like a normal, educated, intelligent human being. Secondly, how does someone acting like a child, immature, unintelligent, etc. have A SINGLE THING to do with them having graduated college? Seriously, there is zero correlation between those two things. Please answer me.Originally posted by MoneyLineDawgComment -
Do you think anyone gives a damn about that kid? Seriously, do you? He left the biggest game of his career in the penetrating middle of it. He's a nobody now.Originally posted by bubblebuttluvComment -
For real, that statement alone is why people think you're off the walls crazy. Suffering a catastrophic fluke injury in your mind is somehow him being a pussy and saying "fugg you guys, I'm going home"? It wasn't Rory bowing out of a tourney with a fake toothache because he sucked that day, it was a dude with 6 inches of fuggin bone shooting out of his leg getting carried out on a stretcher. No one else that saw or heard about the game is going "he's a nobody". Hell people still talk about Theismanm to this day, I think they'll remember a dude named Ware.Originally posted by NittanyLionsFanComment -
he is trolling you man. you're giving him life and attention by reacting to his outlandish remarks. He posted that you can push a +1.5 bet and claimed a 5 team parlay full of chalk was a lock. Don't even waste your time feeding the troll.Originally posted by Crate MayneComment -
So if someone is posting childish, immature, and unintelligent posts and I don't know the person in real life, why would I think they graduated college? Adults usually don't have the perspective of a 17 year old.........Originally posted by NittanyLionsFanComment -

Yes pray for wareComment -
and another thing i dont understand why didnt the WHOLE team go and console him who cares if you see a bone coming out of your leg. If that was your child or brother or someone really close to you, you dont care if you see a bone out of the leg you go over and console him regardless. All these kids vomiting give me.Comment -
are you comparing a basketball teammate to a child of a person? really cmon man ... half the team probably never even seen anything close to that .. its not easy just walking over while ur friend is on the floor with a half foot of bone sticking out of his leg .. i have dislocated my ankle playing football and thats not even a pretty thing to look at .. i have dislocated 3 fingers while playing basketball and dislocated 1 more from a street fight .. its just a finger but even those are hard to look at ..Originally posted by Ratpack
not everyone can be around shit like tht no matter who it isComment -
you mad bro are those your brothers and pitino is supposed to be their 2nd father right? Yeah your right though its sad though you want your whole team to be their for you and there thinking about themselves in oh i dont wanna see that
Its just in some scenes like that you need to put things into perspective and its not about you in those types of situationsComment -
i know but imagine playing at full speed and then all of a sudden u turn around and u see a bone sticking out of a leg .. for me id be fine w it cuz of the injuries ive dealt with but some people cant be bothered ..Originally posted by Ratpack
i understand where u are coming from thoughComment -
cause if something like that happened to me i would want and expect everyone to be around me consoling me not running away like little girls. how do you think that kid felt when guys were turning their heads and throwing up. they were only making him feel worse not betterComment -
i know i understand man .. im just saying its not a pleasant site thats all .. imagine the kids parents .. if he has any idk what his situation is but still .. fckn insane .. imagine the mother at work and gets that phone call .. or the dad in the bathroom and comes back to them showing the fckn replay over and over .. insane .. such a freak accidentOriginally posted by RatpackComment -
but its still being blown WAY out of proportion like you said it was a freak accident he got PLAYING BASKETBALL. he wasnt shot, he isnt paralyzed or didnt get hit by a`drunk driver or anything. He will be okay and will be back to playing basketball in a yearComment -
yupp .. i feel ya palOriginally posted by Ratpack

Interesting read on how the bone could of been weak.
http://healthland.time.com/2013/04/0...uld-it-happen/Kevin Ware’s Awful Break: How Could It Happen?
By Alexandra Sifferlin
April 01, 2013
By all accounts, it was a freak accident that shattered Louisville Cardinal Kevin Ware’s lower right leg in a NCAA regional championship game. But what makes young bone so vulnerable to such breaks?
On Sunday night, sophomore guard Ware underwent a successful two-hour surgery to reset his broken bone at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis. Hours before, Ware leapt to contest a 3-point shot during the NCAA Midwest Regional championships and landed like a piece of glass, breaking his tibia practically on impact and shooting a piece of the split bone through his shin.
The injury startled players and fans on both team, some to tears, as emergency medical personnel quickly moved to cover the injury with towels.
University of Louisville announced in a press release that Ware’s two-hour surgery went smoothly, and the Associated Press reported he was walking, carefully, and ready to join his team in Atlanta for the Final Four. His bone was set, the wound was closed, and a rod was inserted in his right tibia where it will remain to stabilize the bone and serve as a buttress during healing. Ware continued to stay positive despite his injury, even telling his teammates to “win the game, win the game,” which they did, 85-63.
Ware’s profound injury is highly unusual in basketball players, with some experts referring to it as a “freak accident.” “It’s not a common injury we see in the sports setting at all. We usually see this from car accidents or traumatic falls from very significant heights where there is enough force for the bone to shatter and come through the skin in a compound-like fracture,” says Dr. Robert Glatter, an emergency physician at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York and a former sideline physician for the New York Jets.
A compound fracture is a break that’s severe enough to puncture through skin. Because the bone, normally protected within the body, is exposed to bacteria and other debris and contaminants in the air, these breaks are more likely to cause infections that if left untreated, could become fatal. That’s why Ware was treated with antibiotics and rushed to surgery soon after the injury.
How did the bones in the leg, presumably strong enough to withstand considerable force, buckle under Ware’s own weight? “He probably torqued his leg, or slightly rotated it so that when he landed, the force transmitted through the bone and punctured the skin,” says Glatter. Such a scenario is simply unlucky chance and not likely to occur often. However, there are a few other factors that can contribute to such breaks in well-trained athletes, that aren’t caused by enormous amounts of force packed into normal collisions or falls that can occur during play. A prior, and much smaller, injury such as a stress fracture that could have left his tibia weaker may have made Ware more vulnerable to a fracture. “He probably had a pre-existing stress fracture or some inherent weakness in the bone. It’s unlikely this was a normal bone. People go up all the time and block shots,” says Glatter. Ware’s coach Rick Pitino told AP, however, that there was “nothing prior” to put him at risk.
Endurance athletes often harbor stress fractures in their bones, especially in their lower extremities, that result from overuse. However, this type of silent fracture is more common among professional runners, like American Olympic athlete Manteo Mitchell, who ran with a broken leg in a qualifying heat during the London 2012 Olympics. Mitchell had apparently slipped on the stairs in the athletes village several days before the race, but felt his left fibula pop as he rounded the last lap of the men’s 4×400 preliminary relay. “Could [a similar stress fracture] have contributed to someone who has been running extensively [up and down the basketball court] for the length of an entire season? It’s possible. [But] it’s not a usual problem in a basketball player,” says Dr. Timothy Hewett of the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.
Hewett says other contributing factors could be related to bone density, diet and vitamin D levels. Every year, Hewett measure the bone density of members of the Ohio State Football team prior to their season. He also tests the vitamin D levels of each athlete and screens them for nutritional deficiencies — all to help prevent broken bones in the coming, often punishing season. Recent studies showed that most Americans have low levels of vitamin D, in part because we spend more time indoors, and don’t take advantage of the natural synthesis of vitamin D when our skin is exposed to the sun’s rays. “If vitamin D levels are low, which they tend to be in the Midwest, we supplement. We also see whether a person is getting efficient calcium from their diet,” says Hewett. “Even well-trained athletes still have diet deficiencies. Just for the football team we have two nutritionists on staff. It is definitely a factor in high school and college athletes.”
Poor diet may also play a role in weaker bones, particularly among younger kids, with some researchers suggesting that children drinking too much soda or not eating enough vitamin-rich foods are vulnerable to more brittle and thinner bones.
There are also genetic conditions and bone diseases that can make the skeleton more vulnerable to fractures, although it’s not likely that such individuals would be able to endure the physical punishment of training at such an elite level as Ware and other athletes.
Despite the severity of the break, given that Ware is otherwise healthy and young, he may be able to play next season, although the recovery will be long. “This type of injury could take three to six months to heal for someone who is healthy without significant medical problems, especially an athlete. But ultimate healing and remolding can take up to a year,” says Glatter, depending on how badly surrounding tissues and nerves were damaged in the trauma.
“I don’t know the exact nature of his injury, but there could also be nerve damage. When you have such a traumatic injury, you can also injure nerves that are functional to muscles as well as sensations to the skin.” says Glatter. “High-performing athletes need to have full function, which means twisting, pivoting and having full sensations and position as they move across the court.” To return him to playing shape, Ware’s therapy will likely be aggressive.
As the Louisville Cardinals seek to climb to the top of the NCAA bracket, Ware is hoping that an NCAA trophy will help motivate him through that recovery. But in the meantime, he also has at least one happy memento from the Midwest championship game — the regional trophy. The prize greeted Ware when he woke up from surgery, and Pitino said Ware will hold on to it, for now.
