Ryan Nelsen wasn’t just Sitting around on his Arse while injured

ceh-usman-drill.jpgIf you are like The Game and your favorite team is Blackburn you might have grown impatient as you waited nine months for skipper Ryan Nelsen to come back from injury. Perhaps you even thought that he was slacking off, sitting on his butt watching daytime soaps and drinking whiskey. This very well could have been the case, although it is unlikely that he was sitting on his arse much after he had it sliced open with a drill so that doctors could reattach his hamstring.

Kids, you might want to think twice about aspiring to be a professional football player when you grow up after you read Nelsen’s description of the fingernails-on-the-chalkboard sounding surgery.

He said: “Once the doctor saw the problem he drilled a couple of holes in the bone in my backside.

“They had to reattach my hamstring — then nail it back in.”

Yikes.

It is hard to imaging too many people who would enjoy being drilled in the bum.
