Did you know that a new study shows that playing basketball and riding bicycles sent more Americans to the emergency room in 2005.
More than half a million people suffered basketball-related injuries last year, compared to 485,000 hurt on bikes and 418,000 injured playing football.
Trampolines bounced 108,000 U.S. residents into the hospital. And believe it or not, some 47,000 people managed to get hurt playing golf.
