Rose injured. You gotta hear how.

K.C. Johnson
Derrick Rose wore a large gauze bandage on his left forearm and a
sheepish smile on his face.
Rose missed Monday’s practice after he needed 10 stitches to close a
gash suffered when he said he rolled onto a knife while eating an apple
in bed.
"It was a silly incident," Rose said. "I was cutting up some food and I
laid on a knife getting lazy in bed. I went to go get a bottle of
water, came back, forgot the knife was there, then sat down and sliced
my arm.
"I panicked when it first happened and called my trainer. It was
painful but I should be alright."
Athletic trainer Fred Tedeschi drove Rose to Highland Park Hospital
shortly after 8 a.m., where doctors closed the wound.
"It was a large wound, but they healed it up," Rose said. "I'm good. I
could’ve practiced today, but they told me to wait until tomorrow. Most
likely, I’m going to play."
Rose said he would have the stitches in his arm for 10-14 days.
"It’s just an unfortunate thing, but he’ll be fine," coach Vinny Del
Negro said. "He could’ve practiced today but more precautionary to let
him relax a little after that incident and get some rest. Thank
goodness it’s not serious. It could’ve been a lot worse."
:)) I thought it was funny. But even funnier is this comment by a reader:
Today's lesson: When you get a fortune cookie and it says "Cut yourself an apple!", make an exception and DO NOT append "in bed" to it.
