If a broken bone isn't protruding through the skin, wrap the area tight and get back out there.  :roflol:

I once broke a finger in a game, so the coach had the assistant coach put half a popsicle stick on it and wrap it with tape, then told me I needed to go to the hospital and have it set AFTER the game.

Haha my buddy dislocated his finger I set it for him on the sideline

My Dad was a double Silver Star recipient in the First Infantry Division during World War 2, and they were trained and equipped to fix their own wounds on the field of battle unless there was a Medic nearby.  After that game where I broke the finger, I told Dad I needed to go the ER to have it looked at. My Dad looked at it said I didn't need to go to no stinking hospital, so he attempted to align the break himself and wrap it tight with tape. I was only allowed to facially grimace with pain, but no verbal sound or passing out was allowed.
 You should see that finger now - as crooked as a dog's hind leg. :grin:

I was raised around my uncle. Big, mean sucker but treated me like his own. One day, I took his motorcycle out without permission, hit a pothole  and slid it down the road. Tore my side,  knees and elbows UP! Called him and he came home. Clothes covered in blood, I figured I needed a Dr...He took a tire brush and bottle of alcohol and scrubbed the asphalt out of the wounds,  ripped up a t shirt, wrapped me up and said, "That'll do.  Thats what you get for disobeying to me".  A person would go to prison these days

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
