Girl Game

NFL players regularly play with broken bones. But when you're playing a little girl's game like soccer, a singed nipple is apparently a near-crippling injury:

Chapman was preparing a bottle of milk for his new-born son, but did not attach the lid properly and spilt it over himself.

The 22-year-old was taken to hospital, and a bemused Wilder admitted it almost forced a late change to the line-up.

He said: “Adam was a doubt, he had to go to hospital and may have to go and see a specialist to have a closer look at it because he’s burnt his nipple.

“It’s an unusual injury, but to be fair he played and came through the game.


What bravery! What stamina! He played through the whole game with a nipple singed by warm milk. Oh, what a hero.

It's almost as ridiculous as panty-modeling poofter David Beckham whining about the heat in Houston. After playing a game here in May, he quiver-lipped about how it was too hot and the players shouldn't be subject to such excruciating torture. In May. Hell, it's still quite nice here in May; we ain't even starting to get warmed up. Our 14 year-old boys practice two-a-days in August. I've heard, though, that heat can damage your hair and cause premature nail breakage, so maybe those were Miss David's primary concerns.

Jack Youngblood played not one, not two, but the entire 1979 NFL playoffs, Superbowl 14, and the 1979 pro bowl with a broken fibula.

Don Merideth played with a broken rib and pneumonia,

Ernie Stautner (Pittsburgh) played with a compound fracture to his thumb. It was nearly torn off and he taped it up with one roll of tape and finished the game.

And lastly, Walt Garrison played through broken ribs, a broken collar bone, and a separated shoulder on different occasions.

And that is why soccer, or Futbol will always be played by skinny girlymen, who go home and cry to their boyfriends that the coach was mean to them.
