  • Damn Raccoons

    Well this is a new way for someone to get injured.
    http://sports.espn.go.com/ncw/news/story?id=3282461
    Summitt had taken her golden Labrador out for a walk Wednesday night when they came back to find the raccoon on the deck at her home.

    "I momentarily lost it," Summitt told WBIR-TV in Knoxville. "The raccoon was about to attack. I just knocked it off the deck, and fortunately nothing happened but a dislocated shoulder, and it's back in place."

    Summitt showed no sign of injury Friday in Nashville, and she told the TV station the shoulder wouldn't bother her at the SEC tournament. And she learned a lesson about dealing with raccoons.

    "When I realized what could have happened, it almost brought me to tears," she said. "It wasn't very smart on my part."
    Only in Tennessee would this happen.

    I guess I don't understand how she dislocated her shoulder....

      By picking up a 50-lb 'coon with one hand and hurling it off her deck?

        I didn't know they got that big.

          Everything's bigger in Tennessee (yeah, I know the phrase is actually "Texas" but what the heck).

          You gotta love a coach who'll beat the #$@# out of a raccoon (and, incidentally, herself) to defend her dog. Although usually, it's supposed to be the other way around.
