DMV: What’s Up With Brandon Banks?
By Jamie Mottram | February 16, 2011
Despite early reports to the contrary, Brandon Banks seems to have been seriously injured in Friday night’s knife fight. According to his agent, Banks “was knifed in the chest” and is still in the hospital with a chest tube to prevent his lung from collapsing. This from the same agent who had described Banks’ wound as “superficial,” whatever that means. Anyway, scary stuff. Get well, wee man. [Redskins Insider]

A collapsed lung is not fun, but not really serious. It happened to me several times, though not through stabbing. I walked around with a partially collapsed lung for 10 days and even went skiing.
The stab wound(s) are much more serious than having a chest tube.

Good stuff, WFY. I should mention that my “seriously injured” comment is relative to Saturday’s report that Banks just needed stitches and was already out of the hospital.

Hi, everybody! Lets put my failure to pass any medical boards and WFY’s manliness aside, Im going to conjecture to say its not inaccurate to call a collapsed lung from stabbing a serious injury.
