2 hours skills, fitness and contact. Managed to get a corky on my right thigh on the first night of contact
Just have to walk it off and not let it effect my training. My thigh isn't bruised so apart from feeling sore I don't think it's too bad...
what's a corky lmao!! thigh contusion? will google. seems like ur ok tho, that's good.
man thigh contusions suck.. i once had one that left me crippled for like 2 weeks. I still remember it; dude was running at me fast, pump faked on a 3, he flew to block it, and as i went to dribble around him, his knee came down and impaled my quad.
it's funny how we can remember these things.. I remember so much about that day - exactly where I was on the court, alot of the people who were there etc.. I think I can remember lots of my bad injuries though.. that adrenaline factor, permanent write to mental hard drive.

A corky is just Aussie slang for a thigh contusion. My thigh feels better now so it was a just minor one but I do have a fairly decent pain tolerance as well, which helps.
ah nice!

Yours must have been some pretty heavy impact or just hit the right spot to make it last for 2 weeks. I've had a few thigh contusions but I never really remember much about my injuries I guess I just try and put them in the back of my mind and forget about them. The major ones (broken bones and a couple of concussions) stick out but I never think of them.
ya it's one reason i don't actually play bball anymore, too many injuries. I've had tons of (mostly) smaller injuries over the years, but when I do contact sports, I get break stuff.

The only injury I'm paranoid about is my hamstrings. Whenever I'm warming up and doing my first set or two of ME sprints I'm always praying that I'm not going to pull a hamstring out of nowhere.
yea thoughts like that really suck.. I have a ton of them - i absolutely hate them. Would be nice to just be able to enjoy physical effort 100% without having these things in our thoughts.
