Pete Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Forget about this guy? Dennis Byrd 75099[/snapback] Dennis Byrd. Mike Utley. Darryl Stingley. Napoleon Mccallum. Joe Theisman. Bryant Young. Football is a vicious game. Obviously the most horrific was Stingley but the Napoleon Mccallum is the most grusome injury I have seen in all my years watching football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffalOhio Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 WM's injury was bad, but do any of you remember Napoleon McCallum? That injury was brutal. Dislocated knee, blew out all the ligaments and ruptured an artery. IIRC they almost had to amputate his leg. 75165[/snapback] No, it was McCallum. He was playing for the Raiders against the 49ers in the opening Monday night game in 1994. He was struggling for yards, and Ken Norton pulled McCallum downwards over McCallum's extended leg. You could see in slow motion how McCallum's knee pushed itself backwards and sideways, especially in the slo-mo shot from the rear. That was a gruesome injury, and he never fully recovered. MNF got some grief for repeatedly showing the injury that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he's got a titanium rod in his leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I've only had TiVo for a year, but I have to say that Milloy's injury was one of the top 5 most gruesome injuries I've seen too. I think not many people noticed because it wasn't really replayed on the broadcast, but it was really bad. I just saw an old post by Lori who was saying that she saw it too.... It looked like his whole arm midway from elbow to wrist kinda pinwheeled after spiking into the other player's shin. Yuck-ola! I will be very impressed if Milloy comes back before our playoff run.
