and some days, the bull gets you.


MADRID (Reuters) - If Spanish matador Fernando Cruz ever has children, he'll have doctors at the Valencia bullring to thank after he suffered a double goring.

Cruz, 25, is recovering in hospital after the second bull of Tuesday's corrida caught him in the upper thigh, throwing him into the air, and gored him in the groin once he hit the ground.

Newspapers reproduced the eye-watering bulletin issued by surgeons at the bullring after a two-hour operation and film of the incident was played on the main evening news.

".......Fernando Cruz is suffering from two horn wounds of 25 centimetres in length each. One involves the fibres of the abductor muscle and dissects the femoral artery, the other involves the scrotal area and eviscerates both testicle.........s."

Cruz was sitting up in his hospital bed on Wednesday. Astonishingly, he is expected to be back in action in around three weeks.


Not So Horny Now

I'm afraid to look up eviscerates......cuz that don't even sound good.

OUCH teach him to pick on something his own size .

old adige dont start a fight you know you cant win .

I think the Bull should be declared the winner and be allowed to live out the rest of his life peacefully in some lush field with free access to cows. He's proved he has the right stuff.
