    That sucks man. Wish you a good healing process. The knee is "the" poorest constructed joint in the entire body.

    Lou, sorry to hear about that. I hate when what is supposed to be a fun time turns into a disaster. Hopefully its your left leg so your still able to drive. Prayers up for a quick and full recovery bud.

    Ouch. Lou, I feel your pain man.

    I dislocated and relocated my left shoulder all at the same time.

    Was back in 94 while in the Army. Playing football... Caught the ball, got plowed (dislocated), when I hit the ground, relocated. OUCH.

    I was done for 6 months... tore some ligaments as well

    Lou is young so recovery shouldn't be too bad. Sorry to hear about this man. How about I pop a few Vicodin I have in the medicine cabinet. "There there, it doesn't feel so bad does it?":clap:

    most of the touch intermeral games don't end up that way...shame.


    Jeep SRT8 if after the end of the week let me know if you still have issue. There are a number of things you can do at home once the swelling goes down. ....I stay at Holiday Inn Express all the time.

    the most painful thing i have ever experienced. i dislocated it 4 inches into my armpit. xray looked like something from the x-files.
