Asking why we don’t know more about pitching injuries

Posted by Adrien Griffin Categories: Athletes, Injuries, MLB,

Stephen Strasburg Every year, teams lose pitchers to the disabled list due to arm injuries. It’s inevitable. In 2010 alone, teams averaged using 20 pitchers over the course of the season. Whether it’s fatigue due to overworking, shoulder muscle tears or busted elbows that require Tommy John Surgery, pitchers continue to go down and we still have no realistic clue why it’s happening.

Broadway Spider-Man Plagued With More Troubles: Lead Actress Leaves

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music,

Ill-fated just doesn’t seem strong enough language to describe the series of troubles that have plagued the Broadway version of one of Marvel’s most successful franchises.

Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark has been repeatedly delayed, run far over-budget and suffered a series of catastrophes that left some cast members injured. Now, the production has a new problem: Actress Natalie Mendoza has walked away.

Mendoza -- who played Arachne, an evil love interest to the spandex-clad hero -- recently suffered a concussion during last month’s preview performance, and now she says she will not stay with the production. “It has been a difficult decision to make, but I regret that I am unable to continue on Spider-Man as I recover from my injury,” she offered in a statement.

Hugh Jackman may be an action star, but he's been taking a lot of hits off the screen lately.

Earlier this month, the Wolverine took a hard hit to the face during a taping of Oprah in Australia. (Jackman, who was attempting to zipline his way to the stage, smacked into a lighting rig.)

Over the weekend, it was the lower half of Hugh's body that took the blow. In the video above, you can see the moment when a ball thrown by professional cricket player Shane Warne meets Jackman's groin.

Posted by Adrien Griffin Categories: Athletes, NHL,

It’s going to take a heck of a winning streak to turn the New Jersey Devils from this season’s biggest bust into a playoff contender – at best. After headlining a rather tame summer with the contract controversy of Ilya Kovalchuk, the Devils now find themselves competing with the New York Islanders for last place in the Eastern Conference. The two anti-giants faced off against each other on Friday afternoon and the Devils found it impossible to score on Rick DiPietro, losing 2-0.
