4/11 @ Kansas City

[Dojji]

What happened?

 

Beltre and Ellsbury crashed, and Ellsbury took a long time to get up and was clutching his chest.

[jacksonianmarch]

Ellsbury may have broken some ribs

[Dojji]

Ellsbury may have broken some ribs

 

You are a total bastard.

[Dojji]

Red Sox win.

[jacksonianmarch]

I think it was too high to be a rib

 

That's the perfect way to break them too. They are weakest on the sides.

You are a total bastard.

 

You really are. Why don't you give us an extended break from your s***?

[italstallianion]

You are a total bastard.

 

 

You almost sound surprised.

[jacksonianmarch]

You are a total bastard.

 

That's likely. Why am I a bastard?

[yeszir]

What's going on - why are we calling Jacko a bastard?

[jacksonianmarch]

I apologize for being realistic. If u want me to be unrealistic, then let me know

[ZonaSoxFan]

We won! I hope Ellsbury isn't broken. And Ortix for that matter, different kind of broken, mind you.

Why not?

[yeszir]

Why not?

 

I think they're doing it for the wrong reasons though.

[jacksonianmarch]

XRays aren't great to pick up rib fractures. If u see them on Xray then they're displaced

[italstallianion]

Is there ever a wrong reason though?

[Youk Of The Nation]

Yes, Jacko, we understand. The Sox are doomed.

We see it every time you talk about a Yankee prospect.

[Spudboy]

No, he's a Doctor.

[italstallianion]

That's a fellow Yankee fan burn. That's twice the normal burn.

Here's why Jacko is annoying:

 

EVENT: Ellsbury makes a spectacular catch in left.

Jacko: That catch was spectacular cause he took a bad route to the ball.

 

EVENT: Daniel Bard throws a 100 MPH fastball

Jacko: I'd rather 95 on the corner than 100 down the middle.

 

EVENT: Varitek hits two HRs

Jacko: He's back on the juice. He leads the team in HRs cause the Sox suck.

 

And in every occurance when the Sox do something good, Jacko offers his incredible insight by saying it's cause the other team did something bad.

Hey man..I have no friends here. Just varying degrees of enemies.

Simply explain to Jacko that Ellsbury did not break a rib because he's more durable than Paul O'Neill.

[boomer]

Any news on Ellsbury?

[BoSox21]

Gordon Edes says Xrays were negative on Ellsbury. Bruised ribs and he's in lots of pain apparently.

[Dipre]

Scutaro leading off plz. Both Drew and Pedey hate to lead off.

[BoSox21]

I'd be shocked if it wasn't Scutaro leading off

[jacksonianmarch]

He probably broke them. Non-displaced fractures are missed on more than 50% of XRays, even dedicated "rib films". Regardless, the treatment is the exact same. You cannot splint ribs, it's just pain control and making sure he breathes deeply. "Splinting" is the body's reaction to chest wall pain, meaning you take shallow breaths. Forcing him to take deep breaths (through pain medication and an incentive spirometer) is the best way to prevent pneumonia.

 

To tell you the truth, in my practice, if a patient has rib pain after appropriate trauma, they get the diagnosis of a rib fracture even if I dont see one on XRay. We miss them so frequently that you need to assume it is broken even with a normal XRay.

 

There are only 2 ways to find out. A bone scan, which is a waste of money, or an XRay in about 1-2 weeks if he is still having pain. If you see a callus, then he had a fracture.

 

Regardless, he's gonna be out awhile, and I expect a DL stint. Even if he didnt break it, he's gonna hurt for a week plus, meaning he's probably DL bound

I never said the sox suck. I am sorry you do not like reality, if you want to continue living in a fantasy world, then by all means ignore my posts.

[Gom]

Doc...I just farted...

 

Do I have ebola?

Oh, so reality is you keep saying Ellsbury "probably has broken ribs" when every legitimate source has said that he suffered a rib contusion? No, you're just being a s*** disturber and an opportunist by bashing the team whenever you see a chance.

 

Must be a great feeling to have 20,000 posts and have no one take a single damn thing you say seriously. At least PWNdroia was only 250 posts or so in.
