Knowing Gino, alcohol just maybe, possibly, probably might have been involved.
CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati quarterback Gino Guidugli broke a bone in his throwing hand when he slipped outside his home and might miss Saturday's game at Louisville (No. 8 ESPN/USA Today, No. 7 AP).
Guidugli, who holds most of the school's passing records, broke a small bone on the top of his right hand Saturday night.
"I slipped on the top step, tried to brace my fall and hurt my hand," Guidugli said.
That reminds me of this classic Clinton story:
HOBE SOUND, Fla. (AllPolitics, March 14) -- For an avid golfer like President Bill Clinton, his weekend plans must have seemed the perfect retreat from the unpleasantries of Washington. He was to stay at golf champ Greg Norman's 80-acre oceanside compound and play in Norman's two-day golf tournament.
Following their gab-fest, which ended early Friday morning, the two men headed outside toward the Jupiter Island estate's cottage where Clinton planned to spend the night. But the president's idyll soon ended as he caught his heel on an "irregular-shaped" step, causing his right knee to "pop" and buckle under. Norman, too, got more than he bargained for as the Australian native, a.k.a. The Shark, found himself breaking Clinton's fall.
When paramedics rushed to the scene, Norman and a Secret Service agent were supporting Clinton's head. Paramedic Richard Wilde told The Associated Press, "If it wasn't for Greg Norman, he probably would have been hurt a lot more. Those were concrete steps."
Don't you hate it when "early Friday morning" those "irregularly-shaped" concrete steps jump up and trip you. Yeah, right.
