“How one “fatigues” their groin, specifically the right one, is so not beyond my imagination.”

I could have so much fun with this comment if only I had not used up my immaturity quota for today.

If that tickles your fancy, you obviously missed the “fatigued right groin” which Roger Clemens suffered from earlier this season and caused him to miss a start.

How one “fatigues” their groin, specifically the right one, is so not beyond my imagination.

Pulled groin.

This is me, giggling hysterically.

I am SO immature.

You could replace “groin injury” with the perplexing euphemism currently in use, “sports hernia.” I believe the idea was to remove the word “groin” from headlines and press releases. So instead they use the word “hernia,” as though that has any better connotation.

At least they didn’t say that Kyle got hurt with a “pulled groin.” Oh my aching sides.
