Daily Dumbass: Derek Lee Hurts Himself While Eating



Freak injury time! Derrek Lee hurts back in chair collapse
"I know Alex Remington was just writing on how Derrek Lee(notes) has been prone to injury the past few years, but this is ridiculous.
According to manager Lou Piniella, Lee had just sat down for some pregame chow on Wednesday when the clubhouse chair beneath him decided to call it quits.
The Cubs first baseman dusted himself off for an appearance in an exhibition game against the Rangers, but he left early to receive treatment for his 34-year-old back. "
It's embarrassing enough to injure yourself while eating, but to do so while sitting in a chair looking like that is absolutely detrimental to your image.  Derrek Lee, you have millions of dollars and you are still sportin' the grandma poolside rocker?  C'mon now.  Lesson one of being a professional athlete, keep all your grandma's hand-me-downs secluded in one room.  Not to mention the chair looks like it got in a full out first fight with the ball player.  How you do so much damage while eating is beyond me.  I'm still stuck on who got the last laugh though?  Sure the chair took some hole-some shots that might require a patch job, but you don't see the chair being embarrassed in Yahoo! headlines do you?  


Consensus:
Derrek 0, Poolside Granny Rocker 1
