The end of the line is nearing in terms of my participation in sports. I'm almost 36, I'm carrying around somewhere between 20 and 275 extra pounds, and I'm not getting a chance to exercise. It's not that I'm going to up and announce my retirement, pretending that my career has warranted such a dramatic conclusion. No, I am your typical weekend warrior knockaround plugger, and so I imagine that my career will end in the way most weekend warrior knockaround pluggers' careers end, with a painful and embarrassing injury. Maybe even in the next few weeks or months. It's a comin'.

We don't want to let that milestone event go by without pumping a little fun out of it. So we hereby announce The Official Verbungle.com Career-ending Injury Challenge. Here are the rules. Somewhere on the right side of the home page, there will be a Trusty HaloScan comments box. In that box, you can leave your prediction of how the playing days of Hans Bungle will effectively end.***

1. Date and Time
2. Location
3. Sport being played
4. Injury Suffered (be as specific as possible, i.e. include which side of the body, etc. -- but no need to describe the exact play that caused the injury, although you can if you want to)

So a legitimate guess could be:

9/3/05, 7:52 pm, P.S. 41 gym, basketball, ruptured left groin.

The closest guess in each category will receive a free verbungle.com button, courtesy of verbungle.com. And yes, Brian C., we're still working on that T-shirt from the lyric challenge.

Maximum ten guesses per person.
