Ultimate Frisbee is the (WARNING: PERSONAL OPINION COMING UP) Greatest sport around. I've been playing it for about a year and a half now, and it's pretty much what keeps me in shape.
If you play it right, it's pretty dangerous, and there are occasional injuries, such as a broken arm (about this time last year) and lots of bumps, bruises, and scratches. Yesterday, however, marked one of the few times it hit me in the face.
Unlike the other times, however, this one hit hard. It was thrown from literally five feet in front of me, at full speed, intended for the other side of the field. Surprisingly, it really didn't hurt that much. It did, however, give me a horrible nose bleed. As I walked to the bathroom my hands cupped with blood (all of which I still haven't been able to wash out. It was the most blood I remember seeing on anyone's hand!
I eventually got it to stop bleeding, but, even now, there is still a bruise, it's swollen up a bit, and it's tender to the touch. Due to this, I'm thinking it could very well have broken my nose.... again...
P.S. It is currently 77.9 degrees Inside my house, and rising! We need to get AC working again ASAP!!
