Taking it for the Team

Today I played in a pickup soccer game. It was a very fun game, but also a very painful one. I got nailed by the ball in a very sensitive region. After I recovered, I got nailed in the side of the head by the ball. My ear was ringing for several minutes. Near the end of the game, my leg got kicked and I twisted my ankle. It is rather swollen. Hopefully, I will recover in time for the next game, and it won't be quite so painful.
