Get Well Chava

Salvador Cabañas, the star Paraguayan forward and América mainstay, was shot in the head in a bar in Mexico City last night. He was then taken to the hospital, where he remains, and further information is basically unavailable. From the reports, it doesn't sound like he was the target of a premeditated attempt on his life, but rather had the misfortune to witness an argument at the bar that escalated into a gunfight. It's not clear whether or not he was involved in the argument or not. Gancho hopes for his speedy recovery.

Update: An official with América says that the incident stemmed from a robbery at the bar, not an argument. He also said that Cabañas is conscious.
