   God, I thought it was going to be a f’ed up knee injury with the knee being blown out from the side. This just might be worse. Let me tell you, JJ, nothing on this planet makes me ill, not blood, not guts, not even necrotizing fasciitis, with the exception of sport induced joint injuries. That picture gave me shivers…ughh.

   Oh man!

   That is brutal.

   It’s like the Joe Theisman injury but worse!

   Now that’s what I call a “rubber-leg play!”

   Jimmy called me on the phone as soon as this happened. Guess he needed to share the details of this disturbing injury. Told him he should call you, since you were probably watching the game. As for me, I was at work. Bleh.

   I can’t stomach stuff like that so I didn’t look. Thanks for the warning.

   I seriously cannot look at stuff like that. The last time I saw a footballer break his leg I nearly threw up. I’m so sqeemish.

   That’s a bad one all right.

   For those old enough to remember, there was a lineman who played for the Bengals back during one of their appearances in the Super Bowl (don’t laugh, they made it twice) in the late 80s. His lower leg broke exactly like this one except halfway between the knee and ankle. He rode out of the stadium insisting that he wanted to stay on the sidelines to watch the rest of the game.

   Although the doctors said he might never even walk again, he actually came back and played the next year. Damndest thing I ever saw. Certainly more fortitude than I can weasel out of my lazy ass.

   I’m hoping this guy can make a comeback sometime in the next couple of years. He’s got huge potential.

    I can’t look. Those kinds of shots always eeb me out.

    I also couldn’t look at the hammering the Gators took this weekend. What’s up with that?

    I’m with Desult on this one… by far the type of injury that makes me the most squeamish.

    I had to cover my mouth look away and say “AAAAAWWWWW”
    My “8″ year old son said ” I’m glad that ain’t me,but I feel sorry for him and I hope he get’s better. My Dad said he’s seen that twice. Theisman and Prothro. Theisman never came back…
    HOPE PROTHRO DOES!!
