Senator's Hockey Injuries Stand Out At NHL Champs' White House Visit
Yahoo Sports ^ | 01/24/12 | Ben Maller

Posted on 01/24/2012 9:06:07 AM PST by AngelesCrestHighway

NHL teams have visited the White House for years after winning the Stanley Cup, but it's a safe bet that never before has a Senator shown up more beaten and broken than the hockey players.

Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) was part of the ceremony honoring the Boston Bruins 2011 Stanley Cup win, appearing like he had just come from a knock-down, drag-out ruckus.

Kerry, 68, suffered two black eyes and a broken nose during a "friendly game of hockey" with family and buddies over the Christmas break, according to TheHill.com. If that's the result of a friendly game, we don't want to be a part of an unfriendly one.

Momma caught him peepin’ in the neighbor girl’s window and tried to knock them binoculars out the back of his head.

For Lurch, it’s now known as “ facial reassignment surgery” he’s trying to stop being an equine-American.

Sorry he got hurt. No Kerry fan, but I love it when older Americans are active participants in life.

More power to him!

I think the funni9est comment was posted on one of the news sites carrying the story:

"His wife caught him drinking from the toilet, and slammed the lid on his head."

I still say Odumbo’s butt cheeks slammed together just as lurch was kissing it.

You can’t get two black eyes with one punch or a single hit with a stick.

you can with a broken nose. (been there, done that.) but his nose looks normal.

My friend and his Nissan had a nasty encounter with a dump truck and looked fine within 2 weeks. These bruises look fresh.

Yes, they do look very symmetrical, which is hard to achieve with a hockey stick. Watch for lurch to look “refreshed” in a couple weeks. Question is, why did he go out so soon after his cosmetic surgery?
