AK 47 gets SMASHED

baron makes the entire state of utah cringe in horror as he destroys one of the best shot-blockers in the NBA. good video highlights here. it must've sounded like a jet crashed inside the arena after that one...

the cracked ribs runaround

here's how it goes down:

play basketball; get tangled up on defense and catch a dude's knee in the ribs as you go to ground; feel pretty sore for about a week; call kaiser to make an appointment when the pain increases and spreads to your back after 10 days; have the advice nurse tell you to go to ER right away in case of complications; go to ER and have them tell you to go over to urgent care in the other building; show up right as that department is taking lunch and wait for an hour; finally see the doctor, explain your symptoms and sit through a brief examination; find out it's "probably fractured, maybe just a contusion" and that an x-ray wouldn't provide any additional information; get advice to avoid contact sports for about 6 weeks and a prescription for really strong advil; congratulations, you just spent 3 hours, mostly waiting, to find out you were pretty much doing the right thing already.
