Men...I Just Don't Get Them Sometimes

Ok...this is more of a vent....

My man-friend plays in a school basketball league--graduate school. So, that automatically places most of these men in the 26 yr to 90 yr old age range. If you saw them you'd know exactly what I meant--some really do look 90 years old. Well, last week Man-Friend pulls his groin--really bad. I mean, he could barely move his leg. He sat out today's game because he wasn't feeling up to par, but he's trying to get better for the next game because in his own somewhat sordid mind he believes his team needs him. Um, last time I checked there wasn't a b-ball draft for graduate students trying to live their hooping dreams out in a whack school league. Are you serious?? Are you really risking hurting yourself seriously because these fools 'need' you?? I just don't get men. After a certain age, things just don't heal as fast as what they did when we were kids. I'm honestly worried that he may injure himself more, and I tried to express that to him, but like a man, he did not listen to a word that came out of my mouth.

Now, that I have finished venting, I'll just make sure to the have the ambulance on speed dial for the next game...better yet, I think I'll just go over to the emergency room BEFORE the game and fill out the paperwork so he can just walk (excuse me--crawl or hobble--whichever you prefer) on in to be seen by an ER physician. Oy vey!
