Ok, since no one else will say it I will. my guess would be he effed up and used the fumbled drop as an excuse. he was probably dicking around with it doing who knows what and popped himself in the hand. since he knew he'd be ostracized by friends and family he came up with the fumble story. I think this is more likely than what he said happened. I could be wrong and my unsolicited free opinion is worth every penny. either way it looks painful and lessons were learned.
