As The Ankle Turns...

See what I did there?  With the ankle line?  Because he dislocated it??  Pretty f'ing clever, huh?

Seriously, though, what's the deal with this Joba ankle situation now?  He's saying he didn't even dislocate it, it wasn't that bad, and he's going to pitch this year.  Cash is saying he talked to the doctors and confirmed that it was an open dislocation and it's still unknown if Joba can pitch this year.  Again, I don't have a medical degree, but it seems like something as horrific as an open dislocation of your ankle is a pretty black-and-white situation that even people outside the medical field could look at and diagnosis.  Why Joba is trying to downplay everything is very confusing to me.  The only thing I can think is that he's trying to make Cash and his doctor out to be the heels to set up a match at Wrestlemania against his doctor for the right to be medically cleared to pitch in 2012.

Actually, that would be pretty awesome.
