Wraith Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Just another reason why these guys are crazy for not wearing cups. Good lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CajunBillsBacker Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 That's an entertaining read, thanks. I couldn't imagine being in that situation where i'm on the football and someone is pulling on my jock or digging in my ear. I'd be pissed off at the world after I get up.

Beerball Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 BEN LEBER, Chargers Linebacker In the pile you hear some screams of pain, but you don't know where it is coming from -- unless it's you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 BEN LEBER, Chargers Linebacker In the pile you hear some screams of pain, but you don't know where it is coming from -- unless it's you. 219042[/snapback] " I don't know who bit me, but after the game I had to get a little [tetanus] shot." This is great. But you'd think a big pile like this would call for an immediate instant replay, since if it changes hands, it wasnt done by the rules (and I mean that the guy was obviously down already).

MikeG Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 it still baffles me how they play such a violent game and don't wear cups... baseball players wear them and football players don't... crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob4Bills Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Great read! The wildest 'scrum' I recall was in SBXXVI. The 'skins seemed comfortably ahead late when Jimbo got us 2 tds, recovering an on-sider. We tried it again and it took several moments to unravel with obvious animal viciousness in the pile. I was near breathless watching and when they finally blew the whistle there was no obvious call by the officials. Then they just gave the ball to Washington and all hope was lost..
