Updating a previous item, Alex Smith's broken right leg involved compound and spiral fractures.
A compound fracture means the bone pierced through the skin, while a spiral fracture is where a long bone is broken by rotational force, hence the "spiral" motion. Smith broke both his tibia and fibula, a gruesome injury that will require a lengthy rehab. It's not 100% Smith will be able to play again. Nov 19 - 6:08 PM
Haha...what? Doesn't he post every 7 min updating everyone on his fantasy football team. He has a wife and kids? I'm assuming the kids must be grown.
