Originally posted by hpeak13 jammed finger no, think severely dislocated and sticking to the side at a 45 degree angle. was on the way to the hospital put I put it back into place so I taped it up and kept playing. Still kinda crooked so I figure it's time to let the doctor take a look. and most importantly, I did stop the shot.

Good block then HP!

I'm no orthopedic, but sounds like you really broke your digit there amigo!  Yet nothing that a splint won't repair.

Quick fix:  Four 'fingers' of cachaça (excuse the pun); two popsicle sticks; some gauze and tape.  Take your shot (liquid, by mouth, not a kick with your foot), wait 60 seconds, and then have the most sadistic member of your team 'straighten out' your finger.  After you've screamed, have them splint your finger with the sticks; wrap and tape.  If you didn't cry when you finger was 'adjusted', have another shot.

If you did cry, have two....

... Don't know, mate. I've done all the interviews now I'm awaiting verdict. One of the companies in SP was interested in me and they want me on the team. Naturally since I'm dealing with Brazilians here I have to take everything with a pinch of salt, until I actually receive signed contract and approved visa nothing is certain. Will send them reminders every week or two, don't want to bore them out of hell but need to show interest for a job. I've been advised by Dom Pedro.
