Byron "Leftwich" No Excuses

Just when Byron thought it couldn't get much worse than going down again for the third time in three seasons to a lower leg injury, he found that it was just beginning.

After spending hours in the training room, tending to his oft-injured lower right leg, the left front leg of the training table he was on snapped off, sending Byron sprawling to the floor amidst a flurry of ice and gauze that liked like a Nor'easter.

He was able to recover, barely standing on his injured leg when the left side chain of the flourescent light ficture snapped, swinging down and slamming Leftwich down to the ground for the third sack of the game (the officials only gave the light an assisted sack as the table received the other half of the credit).

Byron was quoted as saying "It just wasn't my day, the defense seem to be one step ahead of me the whole day, right up to and including the light that blinded him from the weak side. Alge Crumpler was nursing his injury in the table next to him and said "I tried to block it from him, but I slipped on the spilt' ice and it got by me before I could even plant my feet."

We received a call late last night from local law enforcement informing us that it wasn't the end of his troubles as he received a flat tire on the freeway.

"Boy, some people just don't know when to quit trying".
