OK, here's an embarrassing story...
I'm left handed (one of the other things wrong with me
) and have no clue how to bowl b/c nobody can teach me. I was with some friends at a local lane and decided I'd try my luck at just watching and trying to "mirror" the process.
When it was my turn I got up, threw back, brought the ball forward and managed to catch myself behind the knee, knocking myself to the floor.
I never bowled again.

That's sad...
I didn't know that Bryant. One day we'll have to go to Capitol Lanes and let you learn how to bowl. (Can I assume you were intoxicated that one time you tried it?)
My worst sports injury... was probably getting hit in the nuts by a female soccer player. The ball was bouncing towards her, and I tried to intercept it. I jumped up with my knee up so I could catch it on the inside of my leg. She decided she was going to use her hip to clear the ball back out. (!!! -- is this a legal maneuver?
) I got the ball, but when I came down I landed straddle of her hip. I immediately bounced back and hit the ground, where I proceeded to roll around in agony for several minutes while she stood over me apologizing and trying not to laugh.

Almost broke my nose twice while boxing. That's the closest I ever came to sports injury...
