    When was the last time, if ever, that a player suffered a serious injury during the All Star game? And if so, how did that injury affect his team's second half of the season and playoff run?

    I remember some horrendous injuries in the Oldtimers game. Glad they discontinued that one. One dude blew his knee out just running on the break, no contact, no jumping involved.

    I remember that. Wasn't it Connie Hawkins that tore his knee up the last time they played that game?

    AIDS isn't an injury
    I beg to differ. I think it's worse than blowing out a knee.

    Dizzy Dean's career was effectively ended when a line drive broke his big toe in the 1937 major league all star game, then he wrecked his arm when he tried to come back too soon

    But he didn't get it during the game, so technically it doesn't count since he already had it.

    But yeah, it is pretty bad.

    Nah, the date is right. I actually knew about Dizzy Dean but had forgotten.

    That by far is the most famous A-S game injury because it killed a HoFer's career.

    It must have been shocking for you to witness that in person.

    Naw, I'm not old enough to have caught any of Dean's playing career, but I do remember the adults talking about him breaking his toe

    However, Dizzy Dean and PeeWee Reese are still my all time favorite broadcast team---nosing out Sean Elliott and his latest foil

    Should I take you seriously? I mean while you may be technically correct that he has lost all signs of the HIV virus. It more likely means that they have become dormant and reside mainly in his spinal tissue. Having access to the drugs that he did; helped stave off an early death, and perhaps death from aids at all, but he still has it.

    There is a difference between HIV and AIDS.
