I broke my pinky yesterday. I play on my company soccer team as the goalie. a ball glanced off of my pinky and broke it right around my cuticle. Still hurts pretty bad, but I did get some percocet to ease the pain. Luckily it wont affect my job too much, but it will put a damper on me playing softball and soccer for awhile.

Just cut it off and get back in the game. That's what Bill Brasky would do.

You wouldn't make it in the NFL.

To have kept that from happening, I would have needed gloves with a steel insert.

Probably not :D


On a related note, this was the first time I ever had to go to the emergency room, for myself.

I broke my pinky and ring finger playing softball a few years ago. I remember it being more of a pain in the butt than being outright painful, as it would get moved around with the smallest of actions, like shaving or brushing your teeth.

I broke my pinky and middle finger, on separate occasions, playing goalie for my firm's soccer team a few years back. I just broke them right at the last knuckle and never sought any sort of medical attention.

I did make a home-made splint with pieces of a chopstick, scotch tape, and cotton balls. It didn't work. Both fingers are permanently crooked at the end.

The worse part is, I can't play guitar hero until it heals. Broke my the pinky on my fret hand.

Django Reinhart, one of the greatest jazz guitarists of all time, had 2 fingers on his fret hand.
