Chicago Bulls point guard and Rookie-of-the-Year frontrunner Derrick Rose received ten stitches in his arm Monday morning to close a self-inflicted knife wound, according to the Chicago Tribune. Did Derrick Rose turn emo and get carried away listening to Death Cab for Cutie? On the contrary, he was slicing an apple in bed and decided to just leave the sharp blade laying on his comforter (as we all do at some point during the day). He sat down—on his arm I guess—and opened a gash in his left forearm. Impressive. He’ll have the stitches for 10-14 days.
Man, if I had a nickel for every time I cut an apple in bed and then left the knife laying in the sheets, I would be one affluent blog writer. NikeBlog sets the over/under at one week before the real story comes out as to what the hell Rose did to himself. AP picture
