I think he’s got a stinger.

This is not the bee’s knees

Wrong game. The ball should be round.

They may need to wrap him in the cat’s pajamas to get him off the field.

Nice jackets that the commentators are wearing!

Doc says he’ll never be able to dance the Charleston again.

A Bee C Sports - Ha ha ha

FYI: bees knees.

…and here I thought bees knees were an ingredient in Witches Brew⁉️☺️☺️

I can imagine on-field injuries causing a player to lose a pair of legs, but how did the medic lose his? (Maybe the broadcasters, too, but I can’t see to be sure.)

We’ll bring you the buzz on his condition during our half time report.

When asked about the player’s injury, the coach responded, “That’s none of your beeswax!”.

I wonder why the medic is wearing cleats?

And here I’ve always thought that “the bee’s knees” was old-fashioned slang for “the best” or “marvelouos” or some such idea.

Who woulda known…

Do any bees have knees?

In fact, they do – even though they are not technically called knees. Bees have six legs, and each of those six legs includes a joint between the femur and tibia, known as a knee. So one knee per leg equals a total of six knees per bee. But bee’s knees don’t function the same way as human’s do.Credit: https://beeswiki.com › Uncategorized

I don’t suppose they’ll be wearing the cat’s pajamas
