Are You Ready for Some Football?

I lost the flip of a coin and became the patient for our Orthopedics course today. I had to wear full football gear so that 14 students could each practice lifting and rolling me onto a spine board. Along with being groped all over, I had to fess up to my big head once again. We tried on 5 helmets and the "large" one fit only after we removed some padding.
I have a lot more respect for football players- the helmet is heavy and very limiting to your range of vision. Let's hope I am never on a spine board again.
