This sucks a$$! I should be riding!

So on Tuesday I go to my regular Jui Jitsu class and some young punk has to prove something to me. We were learning some throws and submissions. Well I let him train on me and he did the arm bar wrong and put all his weight from his boney a$$ on my chest....the dude weighed a good amount though because he was tall. Then I felt my ribs pop....I am thinking fu(k! I finished the class....and my ribs were sore the next day...but thought I would be fine to ride because I thought it was a little rib bruise. I planned on riding with Idaho Slim and gang for the Afton, Wy ride well before this. Well I went with them on Thursday and played in some good POW. Then I could barely ride out on that bumpy a$$ trail because the riblets had taken a beating. I really messed them up worse and now they are riding in Afton right now and I am home with a damn TV remote and talking to you bastages! Someone pass me a tissue and a strong drink! :mad::mad::mad:
 
Hard lesson to learn. I am pushin 40 now and have to give everything I do more thought. 1 back surgery a couple years ago due to lifting a sled wrong.....done it a million times before, bit me that time. Now I stretch before I stretch and make sure my kids are close when it comes time to lift anything over 10 lbs..I have to make them think it is all part of my good parenting keeping them in shape so I dont lose my "dads the man" status. I dont eat spicy foods the day before a ride, dont kick the dogs because I could break an ankle, roll out of bed instead of sitting up first, brace myself in the shower and stretch again before I dry off, eat fish oil pills to lube my joints, then stretch again before I head to work, plan my daily constitutions because the damn fish oil lubes more than the joints, of course stretch before I sit to think about that:eek:.......but when I am on the mountain, all bets are off. Good luck with your ribs buddy, stomp on his toe when you get back to class.
 
storeytellin that doesn't make me feel any better! LMAO Now I am more depressed and need a double in my drink! LMAO I am still as young as I feel! come on! I take fish oil pills too, but just cause they are good for ya, not to lube my joints. hehe Ya I am gonna stomp on that bastages toe when I get back!
 
Sorry to hear that. Sometimes those things can be an accident, just by loosing track of the force that is being applied. But then again this kid could just be a dick. Hope you mend soon. Try wrapping them when you go out until you are completely healed. It worked for me when I popped a rib out, and it helped when I broke a rib (both times). :)
 
Sucks.

Yup, I should be riding also but, our buddy's tenants water heater broke so hes gotta contact the plumber to go fix it................................. I should mention that my sled is in his 4-place.......... lol

MPS, yikes man! hope that heals up soon! :beer;:beer;
 
Nice moosekuckle! I would love to lay the smack down on his candy a$$ or like grizz said use him for a ramp and make him into a tail roost!! haha

AH Hockey that blows when you can't ride because of stuff like that! Tell that plumber to get the chit done so you can go! haha

m_beeson...ya I think it was an accident...don't think he meant too. He is actually a nice kid, just had to throw young punk in there. hehe I will definitely try to wrap it.
 
whaaa whaaa whaaaa. ;) if you cry anymore you'll officially become a Utahn. ;)

3 seasons straight I broke my ribs. wtf? That hurts. It's my least fav break. Wrapping is not the answer since about the year 2000. causes more problems if you leave it wrapped. Wrap something else. you can wrap ribs and ride if you don't leave them wrapped.

didn't know you were going to be in Afton. I was close to coming. lol. leave it alone, MPS. :)

sorry you're hurt. I pop a rib out from time to time, the chiro puts it back and I'm good for go! Hope it's not broken.

How that kid of yours doing on his sled lately?
 
This should make you feel better, I rode in about a foot of powder all day yesterday and the sun was shining, but I landed a jump wrong and twisted my back. Then I had to bail into a tree to avoid a bigger accident and hit the tree with my backand wrenched a bad shoulder even worse. SO I'm sitting in the same place you are, pass the :beer; wine and cheese
 
Banged up my knee 3 weeks ago and it is giving me hell ever since, takes longer to heal up then it used to. Cracked my rib playing basketball a few years ago, still feel it when I twist the wrong way and it cramps up on me. Plenty of injuries playing ball, lotsa fun feeling all of them when the Low pressures are coming. Looking forward to the next 15 years when my last 2 kids are grown up, lol.
 
pull up yor skirt.....you have other ribs. Just kidding, got kicked like that in class by a kid. Got back at him through. OOPs, spinning backfist. He walked right into it. :D Someone get the phone.....
 
MPS-

be happy you are at home on the mend because there is NO new snow at indian creek. there was some but we got it all yesterday. bright shiny sun, over the hood powder, no avy's, cold beers and whisky at the saddle sore.......sorry-i'm rambling now. get well soon.

-p.s.- ben roethlisberger won the last super bowl with broken ribs.

Hehe I will never cry that bad! Damn Rockstar....3 seasons in a row you broke your ribbies! Wow, now that blows! So I am not sure I am getting you....I shouldn't wrap my ribs? I can feel them popping....so a chiropractor can get them back in? Yup was planning on Afton. I heard you bailed out. I was gonna stay at the other motel then I heard you canceled so I was going get your room. Ya I hope its not broken too. My kid is doing good on the sled. haha We went last Saturday....he rode pretty well, no instances...except for getting stuck once.


Damn crashleroux that sucks! Ya lets get drunk together! :beer;:beer;:beer;

marv, damn....I hope I dont feel mine that long from now!

zach....nice! haha

scut farkus....b@stard! LMAO...I love riding at Indian. I would be over the hood powder right now....but no! It was over the hood powder on the bench with Slim, but now I am paying. Big Ben can bite me!

sorry man but i just had to rub that one in. i overheard some guys at coffee this morning at north hiway talking about how excited they were to pound all the fresh at indian/sheep creek and poker peak and i had to laugh. only on the inside though. i didn't want to spoil their breakfast.
 
Dang you guys are old LOL. I really like still being at the stage were I bang myself up and keep riding for another 3 days :D It's ok maybe next year buy a seat warmer for your sled :D

haha....whoever thinks they are gonna pound fresh snow on the weekend in those areas is a fool! That is why I go a lot during the week. I haven't been to Indian or Poker this year, but they are requented places by me. I have avoided Indian because of the avy threat this year. If you eat at North Hiway...I am sure you see my dad.

You will think old when I lock you up in a submission hold and make you cry like the young little girl you are! cheers! :beer;:beer;:beer;

i stopped eating at North Hiway years ago. i just go in to have coffee with all the outstanding citizens that gather there. and i love the smell of diesel early in the morning (any idaho falls local knows what i'm talking about). my dad used to take me in there 25 years ago for a coke and a bag of peanuts. anyways, indian is still a little spooky but that place is always like that. extra careful past gas can hill and then hold it to the bar. we go on thursdays/fridays if you ever want to hop in.
