Eh, that's just semantics really. You're happy you don't have to face him, and the reason you don't have to face him is because he got injured. So really, you're happy that he got injured.
That's fine and totally understandable. I find it odd that so many people act all sad when a football player gets hurt. It's not like he got injured playing chess. Injuries are a big part of the game, so I don't quite understand why people act devastated when they hear about a football player getting hurt.
It's like acting incredulous if you get wet at Sea World.

Most of us don't think the way you do thankfully.

Very well said Tbird. You really have to be a tPOS to take any joy in a kid's injury.

I mean, in a sense I suppose you're right. I am glad we don't have to play against him and it is because he got hurt. I feel bad that it took an injury to get him out though. I would much rather him have to sit out for a non-health reason.
And of course it's different for serious life altering injuries or health problems. Nobody is happy for any reason when a guy has a spine or severe head injury or cancer for instance. I would much rather face a great player than him sit out for a career ending reason.
