How was he not pulled off the field for bleeding out of his anus? I don’t even like guarding the sweaty guy in pick-up hoops…

The Celtics have been walking around looking like that the last couple of days.

I’ll say it. I’ve dealt with this first hand. I couldn’t even sit up, let alone fathom the idea of doing anything remotely athletic. The pain this guy must have been in is hard to imagine. If you’ve dealt with them, you know. If you haven’t, I hope you never have to.

can’t believe you guys thought KC was going to be banned. He’s been around since at least 2007, maybe 2006. Never met or spoken to him, but he’s a good dude.

meh – the banhammer kinda became sort of a meme about a month ago. I was kidding when I made my comment. KC is one of the few whose comments I never ignore.
G’day JMac.

This happened to Marcos Senna with Villareal about 6 years ago in the Champions League. Or at least I assume that’s what happened because he had bloody shorts just like this guy.

I found the blog post I wrote back then about Marcos Senna’s incident back then. I even remembered, correctly, that it was a Champions League match.

How long were TST and Dirt around before they got the boot? I mean, weren’t they widely considered part of a “Commenters Starting Five” alongside KC (and others whom I can’t think of at the moment)? I want the TRUTH!!!

So … are ass-warts a thing with soccer players?
