Tyson Edwards twisted his ankle in a pothole walking back from training in the old Crows Shed to the change rooms a few years ago. I can't remember whether he missed any games though..
 
I agree although i was thinking assault charges being laid as the bare minimum.

Back in 2004, Todd Bertuzzi viciously king-hit Steve Moore from behind during an NHL game, and was eventually charged (and plead guilty to) 'assault causing bodily harm'. I remember seeing coverage of it on Sportcenter at the time, and it was truly a sickening hit.

According to Wikipedia:
"After lying on the ice for several minutes, Moore was removed on a stretcher. He suffered three fractured vertebrae in his neck, a grade three concussion, vertebral ligament damage, stretching of the brachial plexus nerves, and facial cuts. To date, Moore has not appeared in another professional hockey game."

Here is a a full account of the events and the aftermath.

Dermot Brereton was rumoured to have broken his member while having his way with a lass in a hotel, when she slipped off the bar at the most inappropriate moment.

In each of his three biographies, Dennis Rodman has spoken about receiving a 'broken dick' during sex a few times in his life :p

That was a really good read, cheers. :thumbsu:

It's almost like they treated Betuzzi as the victim imo which sucks. He gets a 20 game suspension (whoopdy doo), a slap on the wrist with no criminal record, and then the lawsuit against him is thrown out.

Then after the 2nd lawsuit is lodged against him for almost $20m, he offers the victim an out of court settlement of a measly $350k! Then he procedes to sue the coach! What a freaking nerve this guy has.

Meanwhile, the victim hasn't recieved a cent and has never been able to play again.

What a sad state of affairs.

Here's a video of the incident, as well as the events leading up to it as well. The Bertuzzi hit was a retaliation for an earlier indiscretion by Moore, but that doesn't make it right at all. He clearly went overboard with the 'square-up'. All just pure macho garbage that was totally unnecesary in the first place IMO.
