So Labron James was elbowed in the face last night
And he hit the ground hard. He even was unconscious for a while and it looked bad. They are saying that it isn't as bad as it looked and he should be fine.
Now, I'm watching the local news and one reporter asked the Cavs coach (Paul Silas) "Are you relieved that it wasn't worse than it was?"
WTF? LOL... "News people" kill me.

1. At least the reporter asked a question
even if it was a dumb one. My favorite reporter moments come when they make a long statement and then just stick the mike in the guys face and expect them to say something. I'd love an athlete or some other interviewee to just say "yep" or "was that a question?". Just a little pet peeve of mine.

2. James is gonna look like Hannibal Lechter for awhile...
That elbow fractured one of the bones in his face, and he'll have to wear a protective mask for several weeks (maybe the rest of the season). Ow.
