Say it ain’t so. Not all World Cup injuries are real!
In what can only be described as a shocking, earth shattering new study, it has been revealed that not all those players you see writhing on the ground in pain during the World Cup are, in fact, in pain. According to Dr. Jiri Dvorak, the head of FIFA’s medical committee, of the 156 on-pitch treatments in the first 62 matches, 88 were not noted in postgame reports submitted by the team medical staffs.
“We have too much of this,” Dvorak said. “It’s something we need to look into.”
One theory that Dr. Dvorak should look into is that the players and medical staffs are in cahoots with the makers of magic spray. The ozone-depleting stuff has been abused more at this World Cup than the Serbia and Montenegro goalkeeper.
For those scoring at home, and if you are you should consider getting a life, on average medics have tended to 2.2 players per match this World Cup, compared to 2.7 in 2002 and 2.4 in 1998.
