Ahriman 1 Report post Posted July 29, 2009 Playing in the chowder cup got a shot to the head straight into my ear. Always thought it would never happen to me. Now I have a hole in the top of my ear, not a good time.You're supposed to duck :)Don't complain about ear injuries I wrestle you wana see ear injuries stop by your local high school or university that has a team.I remember my first introduction to cauliflower ear as a kid, going to the U of Iowa wrestling camps. Guys like Barry Davis, Duane Goldman, Lou/Ed Banach, Randy Lewis, J. Robinson and Dan Gable all had nasty cases of cauliflower ear. I've yet to see top notch HS wrestlers or collegiate guys w/o any semblance of this affliction. A lot of off season, olympic freestyle and greco roman wrestling tourneys do not require headgear.Hockey team used to alway talk trash to the wrestling team back at my high school - because we both got to fight people time to time, except we didnt get ring worm.

Cove 38 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 I've had ring worm, staph...you name it hahaha.. I really dont think most hockey players would talk smack to any wrestling team worth their salt.Staph on my leg, and ringworm on my face kept me from provincials. I have th scar from the staph still. But back to hockey. Luckily I have flexible ears so no cauliflower. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
