        Don't play much, do you? I've seen at least 2 broken ankles
this semester. If you jump up, land on the wrong side (line
violation), and someone else lands on your foot, they're likely to
screw up their ankle. (Land first. :)

        Not really. It stings like hell, and hurts your pride, but
I've never seen someone *injured* by a Tachikara tattoo. (We use
Tachikara volleyballs) And I can usually avoid getting hit full in
the face by them... I make an exception to "keep your eye on the
ball" when it wants it that badly.
