Pain did not subside by Wednesday afternoon, so yesterday my dad saw his
 
doctor.  X-rays disclosed a broken bone on his arm where he got hit.
Bernie
now enters the disabled list just in time for exam break.  It is yet to
be
determined whether he will apply to the NCAA for a medical redshirt.
 
Let this be a lesson to all of us.  Beware of flying pucks.
