Country:  | Yeap I saw that on the News the other night. They said his lung collapsed among other injuries and he was in an induced coma. They said that he was hit by a gust of wind. what were they thinking right after the Orcan. They should have known better.

Country: | The Tanner Hall backward spin still looks cool, even though he missed his mark by a couple feet. He almost made it.
Brutal Sports indeed.
