If you are looking for great excuses to get you out of your holiday obligations, these are so bad that they just might work.

The Last Night’s Game Team
1. Nolan Ryan was one of the most feared starting pitchers in the history of baseball (MLB – Major League Baseball) but apparently, he had a soft spot for small furry animals. He decided to take in two coyote pups he found while out on his ranch. One of them bit him and he had to undergo multiple tests for rabies and subsequently missed his start. DON’T BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU
2. Fast food will get you one way or another and no one better to ask then Denver Broncos (NFL – National Football League) Brandon Marshall. He allegedly slipped on a misplaced McDonald’s bag and he sliced up his arm when he tried to catch himself. He had to undergo surgery to repair the fluke injuries. MCDONALDS BAG > BANANA PEEL
3. Former Baltimore Orioles (MLB) outfielder Marty Cordova missed a game due to severe burns he suffered from tanning bed exposure. BURNT TO A CRISP
4. Now retired basketball player and current TV analyst, Charles Barkley, missed a game after an incident involving lotion. He rubbed his eyes while at an Eric Clapton concert, had a bad reaction to the lotion on his hands and had to miss the Phoenix Suns (NBA – National Basketball Association) season opener. IT’S ALL FUN AND GAMES UNTIL SOMEONE LOSES AN EYE
5. Football commentator and retired Detroit Lions (NFL) wide receiver Nate Burleson broke his arm in a car crash where he was trying to prevent his pizza from sliding off the front seat. THE CARRYOUT DISCOUNT WASN’T WORTH IT
