That'll Do It

That is the end of Napoleon McCallum's career. Watch it a few times, soak it all folks. Doesn't that just make you feel good all over? He suffered a ruptured artery in his left knee, and tore three ligaments, tore the calf and hamstring from the bone, and suffered nerve damage.

Now that's how you end a career.

Hahaha... lamest way to break your leg ever

Okay, so it's during a kickboxing match... and that's pretty manly or gay or something... I don't know. Anyway, he kicked the guy, all the other guy did was block his kick and the white dude's leg just turned into jelly. Wimp. Drink some milk, Jesus.

I have no idea who that guy is... and I don't really care.

Mmm... blood

This one is so brutal that it's mesmerizing.



The goalie who got sliced was Clint Malarchuk, a Canadian goalie who played for Québec Nordiques, Washington Capitals, and Buffalo Sabres. This famed injury occured on March 22, 1989 with the Sabers hosting the Blues. Blues player Steve Tuttle colided with Uwe Krupp of the Sabers and the two of them slided right into Malarchuk, slicing open his external jugular vein. Malarchuk somehow managed to get off the ice under his own power and the team trainer and Vietnam medic Jim Pizzutelli pinched his neck closed to make sure that he wouldn't die until the medics got there to suture his neck. Pizzutelli pinching his neck is what kept Malarchuk alive.

Seven fans fainted from the sight of the blood, two fans had heartattacks, and two players vomited on the ice. Which is awesome.

Malarchuck was playing again about a week and a half after the injury.

I still say Soccer is dumb

Alright, the continuation of my little injury series takes us overseas.



Apparently this guy's name is Henrik Larsson, a now retired professional soccer (fuck you rest of the world, it's soccer) player. The injury occured during a 2-0 against Lyon when Larsson was playing for Celtic.

Up to the injury, Larsson was well known for his long blond dredlocks, but after he returned from his year long recovery peroid (A full year? What a pussy. Painkillers exist for a reason, poofter) he shaved his head and never grew out his dreds again.

The injury broke his leg in two places, but when he came back he was (apparently) better than before.

Soccer is still a pussy's sport.

That is a Serious Leg Injury for Willis McGahee

One of my favorite things to do online is show people horrific sports injuries just to see their reaction. The glory that is YouTube makes all of this possible, so I thought I'd share a few of my favorites,i.e. most gruesome, with you. Enjoy!

Willis McGahee's gloriously disgusting knee injury occurred during the 2002-03 Fiesta Bowl for the BCS National Championship as McGahee's Miami Hurricanes looked to repeat by defeating the Ohio State Buckeyes. They just might have done it, too, had it not been for this horrific injury to McGahee during the fourth quarter.


Yep

The Hurricanes ended up losing to the Buckeyes in double overtime, but one must wonder if fortune would have smiled Miami's way had Will Allen gone a little lower or a little higher on that hit.

Regardless of the outcome of the game, McGahee was incredibly lucky and only suffered an ACL tear. He was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the first round of the 2003 draft and has the potential to be one of the premier running backs in the league.

...

That is, of course, if he didn't play for Buffalo. He was traded to the Ravens this offseason.

The "yep" at the end of the video always cracks me up something fierce.

Yum...

This is it my friends, this is the injury that the majority of football pundits believe is the most disturbing hit in the all of football. This is Lawrence Taylor snapping the tibia and fibula of Joe Theismann's right leg.

I believe this goes without saying, but for those who have weak stomachs better not fucking watch this. I will not be held responsible for you vomiting. That's just mean.



snap

Thank God that you can't hear Theismann's bones snap... that would have been even more gruesome.

This all took place in 1985 during a Monday Night Football game between the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins. In a called flea-flicker that did not fool the Giants' defense whatsoever, NFL Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor lunged at Theismann, grabbed him by the shoulder pads, pulled him down, and landed with all of his body weight on Theismann's right leg. Snap, snap. There goes a career.

Although he looks to be writing about in pain, he apparently felt none of it.

"It was at that point, I also found out what a magnificent machine the human body is," Theismann said. "Almost immediately, from the knee down, all the feeling was gone in my right leg. The endorphins had kicked in, and I was not in pain."*

Both Theismann and Taylor have refused to view the footage of the hit, although word is that after it occured, Taylor told Theismann that he was lucky that he hadn't broken both of his legs.

But of course, that's just the type of guy Taylor was/is/always will be. I mean, come on, he's a well known coke-head who's in the Hall of Fame. Take that Michael Irvin.

One must wonder, though... if Theismann had played a few more years maybe he would be considered a legandary quarterback for more than just getting his lag snapped in half and winning one Super Bowl. Maybe he would be in the NFL Hall of Fame and wouldn't be working for ESPN where we have to suffer through his really really dumb comments on a regular basis.

Nothing is really different for Lawerence Taylor. He finished that day just like he finished any other day... coked out while banging a prostitute.

Lawerence Taylor, member of the NFL Hall of Fame.
