Out of Game due to migraine!
Whenever I find stories of people who play sports or are famous....I like to post them. It shows others that migraineurs are not lazy,crazy people. It gives one more point that this is a real disease.

BUCKS AT PACERS, 7 P.M. ETNovember 5, 2010 · 6:31PM
TV: League Pass
Bucks center Andrew Bogut will miss the game with a migraine. He is averaging 14.0 points per game and 11.0 rebounds and will be replaced in the lineup by nine-year veteran Drew Gooden. Bucks coach Scott Skiles said he had been waiting to get Gooden minutes at the five spot, but not in this manner. “Not an ideal way to get him out there,” Skiles said.
The absence of Bogut creates a difficult match-up with Pacers center Roy Hibbert, Skiles said. Hibbert has improved dramatically since last season, and is averaging over 30 minutes a game for the first time in his career. He has led the Pacers in assists the last three games and has scored in double figures in three of four games this season. Skiles said the Bucks have had “a little bit” of success in the past by playing a small lineup and making him guard the perimeter.
The Pacers are minus-30 in the first quarter this season, and Pacers coach Jim O’Brien said a key to improving that is starting games with faster tempo. “We can’t reach our potential walking the ball up the court,” he said.
