I'd feel bad if I punched a spastic too

Shame your parents didn't, otherwise you might not have looked quite as much like Kuato

I thought it was going to be loltastic
As a black eye it's at the lower reaches of sub-standard, no trauma to the eyeball, no visible swelling, bruising limited and fairly light in colouration. Conclusion : Gaylord

The white of the eye should be purple
And the bruising extend to the other side of the nose.

Oh god that happened to my mum
She fell down a mountain. She ended up with 2 black eyes, though one was only superficial. Burst blood vessels in the white, bright purple, down past the cheekbones, everything.

First game of the cricket season 2 weeks ago
Our skipper strode purposefully out to bat. First ball he tried to sweep it down the leg-side, got a top edge and it hit him straight in the eye. Went down like a sack of shit. Had to be helped from the pitch. Could only see out of 1 eye for the next 3 days.

Oof, not good
Teaches him to wear a helmet though!
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 12 May 2011, 12:00, Reply)

No, it didn't.
Batted last weekend without one.

I bounced a batsman once and broke his nose, it literally exploded with blood
I would have felt bad, but he was a cunt and that was the only "wicket" i got that day,

As a young quick bowler I once inflicted a fracture cheekbone on an unsuspecting opening batsman
Shit happens.

The worst one I've had in cricket was from batting with gloves slightly too small for me
The padding didn't cover the last half centimetre of my fingers, and I managed to get my fingers pinched between the ball and the handle from a fast bowler, splitting the fingertip. Stung quite a bit, that one did.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 12 May 2011, 12:20, Reply)

In that case I have zero sympathy I'm afraid
I can understand doing it once, but more than once is simply not clever.

It's like batting without a box.

Helmets are for poofs, fact

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 12 May 2011, 12:19, Reply)

Well the thing is that we're in Scotland.
Generally the pitches are not as firm or as dry as they are down south.

I would say that maybe only 10-20% of all players wear a helmet when batting.

I don't. So far, touch wood, I've not had any major mishaps - apart from an incident in the nets about 20 years ago when I got caught on the cheek by a full toss (oo-er madam). That smarted somewhat.
(Reverend Fister "a disciplined fuckwit", Thu 12 May 2011, 12:22, Reply)

Ahh, that's a bit more understandable then
Also, which do you find more painful - A ball bouncing into your shin, or into your forearm?
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 12 May 2011, 12:30, Reply)

Testicles

(Reverend Fister "a disciplined fuckwit", Thu 12 May 2011, 12:39, Reply)

That's an entirely different class of pain
I meant between those two, both of which hurt far more than expected.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 12 May 2011, 12:43, Reply)

Probably shin
Got hit on the calf while batting last week. Hurt like fuck and I've got a bruise the size of my hand.

my soon to be brother-in-law
was in the nets a week before his wedding. His brother bowled him an absurd ball which ended up smashing him under the chin. No major damage. Could've ended up with a toothless wedding.
