Soccer Star Puts 'Leg' in Legend

Argentine soccer star Ever Banega, a 23-year old midfielder for Spanish La Liga side Valencia, was sidelined for the season after a freak injury, suffering a broken leg when he ran himself over with his own car after stopping for gas on the way home from a training session. Banega apparently forgot to apply the hand brake, and the car rolled back, crushing his left leg between the curb of the gas station and the tire. Surgery to repair a broken fibula and tibula was performed immediately and he'll be out of action for at least six months. Good thing he wasn't traveling on the team bus.

Post Pattern Dumps Coaching Career

School Superintendent Rick Colpitts accepted former Oxford Hills football coach Paul Withee's resignation yesterday after learning that a posted Facebook photo Withee intended to share with a personal friend was inadvertently posted to his general Facebook profile, where it could be seen by anyone. Colpitts confirmed to the Sun Journal of Lewiston, Maine and WMTW-TV that the coach's nude photo, brought to his attention by a concerned parent, was online for about 10 minutes before it was removed. Although the district allows teachers to be "friends" with students on Facebook, Withee said his Facebook page was not available to the public and none of his "friends" were students. Guess the old media guide isn't such a bad idea.
