Worst Sports Injury
O.K. maybe not the worst but not the best by far. How'd you like to be the team doctor who had to stitch the guy up? No thanks, I'd tell him to do it himself.
hxxp://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30200-13437430,00.html?f=rss A footballer had to have six stitches in his penis after it was ripped open in a tackle. Chavdar Yankow, 21, sustained a three-inch gash playing for Hamburg 96 in Germany. His shorts were "soaked with blood" but team doctors managed to patch Yankow up. Amazingly, after the painful incident Yankow returned to the pitch and played on. And the German went on to score in his side's 2-0 win over Frankfurt. From SkyNews |

Dola,
I can't believe he kept playing and scored a goal, I would have just curled into the fetal position and made them bring out the ambulence. |

I saw this yesterday, but decided against posting it. Best part of the story, though, is the guy's name - Yankow, which I blieve is a Slavic name prounced like Yank-ov or Yank-off.

I would've asked for the racehorse with a broken leg treatment. Just take me out behind the stadium and shoot me.

Man....I thought this was going to be a poll, and I was thinking of Mike Cameron get his face busted or Moises Alou dislocating an ankle, but....damn!
That guy is a freakin' bad ass. I also saw a story on ESPN.com about an Aussie football player who is having part of his pinky(?) finger amputated because he had nerve damage or something and can't get a proper grip on the ball. |

Judging by the photograph, the guy's not Slavic Three inch gash though, jeez. That's all the way down one side and back up the other. Edit - actually the photograph of the African player in the Hamburg shirt on the sky news report isn't Yankow. Yankow doesn't play for Hamburg, he plays for Hannover 96. And he's not African, he's Bulgarian. Last edited by Critch : 09-15-2005 at 10:28 PM. |

When they say he "scored," they do mean score a goal.

In the Bundesliga, you had to feel sorry for midfielder Chavdar Yankow at the weekend. The Hannover player received an injury that is surely the worst nightmare for the majority of the world's male population.
The horrific incident occurred in the tenth minute of Hannover's game with Frankfurt. Yankow himself explains: "I ran towards the ball and my opponent, the Frankfurt striker Köhler, kicked his foot into my penis," the player said. Yankow carried on playing, despite the usually debilitating feeling one has after having taken a blow to the nether regions. The Bulgarian went on to gain instant hero status with the home crowd when after a few minutes, he noticed that his shorts were full of blood. "I quickly ran to the side line," he continued. "But I felt no pain." In the dressing room he realised what had happened. The skin of his penis had been ripped four centimetres. But the midfielder wasn't finished there - he actually came back out to finish playing the first half after having glued (yes, glued!) the wound and put a plaster on it. At half time, the plaster was changed and he came back out for the second half a new man (but only just, a few centimetres more and it could have been a different story). And just to prove the point, he went on to score the second goal and seal victory for Hannover.
