Wait until you find out how many Tide Pods you’ve eaten.

He’s supposed to fly to BC in 11 days for another tournament. Odds doc allows it:

Go: +150
No go: -250
In my experience, Doc's rarely give absolute answers. My money is on "maybe, but there is risk."

"Yep, this ankle is fractured."

"OK, cool, how long until I can ski?"

"Depends. You'll probably be feeling better after ~6 weeks."

"OK, cool. I have a ski trip in 6 weeks. Should I reschedule?"

"Depends. Sometimes, these can take 12 weeks. Sometimes, they never heal correctly."

"Alright, but that isn't what I asked. Can I ski in 6 weeks?"

"You'll probably be feeling better after ~6 weeks."

Kind of expecting the “i would advise against it but you do you buddy” schtick.

Are nut shots legal?

My understanding of Canadian sport sez "sweeping the johnson" is impolite and therefore frowned upon

No, but it happens often enough that everyone MUST wear a can. If kicking is involved... odds are someone gets hit at some point.

We now await an ultrasound to determine the next step in the decision tree.

One of the worst things I have ever heard (I didn't see it because I looked away in horror) was a guy in my medieval group who had taken a nut-shot that split his cup. Apparently some of his parts slipped out the crack, which then snapped back closed. As he lay there screaming, the first aid guys had to break the cup the rest of the way to remove it. The rest of us spent a good half hour cringing.

This is why you never buy a plastic can. My son's is metal. He hates it, BUT if his current level of pain is any indication, it's a damn good thing it wasn't plastic.

Waiting on U/S results to be posted.

One of our hoop players took a nut shot when he was a sophomore. One of the toughest kids I know and when he went to the locker room and didn't come back out after halftime, I knew it was very bad. BBall players don't wear any protection anymore. He stepped in to take a charge and took a knee at full speed.
He was back in action the next year. However, there would always be 1 testicle fewer than expectations when he was on the court. To his credit he still stepped in to take charges the rest of his career. Turns out that doesn't take balls, just ball.

Yup. Admittedly didn't watch a single second of the regular season and just bandwagoned the playoffs, which I enjoyed. First playoff game I've seen live, and they almost pulled off the comeback. Sadly didn't get to flip any cars afterwards.
