Around SBN: Kentucky Football: Tee Martin Reportedly Leaving for USC

THAT KID KEEPS HIS HEAD ON A SWIVEL. LITERALLY.

A definition:

A concussion occurs when the head hits or is hit by an object. A concussion can also occur when the brain is pushed against the skull with a strong force. In such cases, parts of the brain that control mental function may be damaged. The injured person may become disoriented (confused) and may briefly lose consciousness.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that about three hundred thousand people experience mild to moderate concussions each year as a result of sports injuries. Most of these people are men between the ages of sixteen and twenty-five.

See illustration 1.A below:

For more information, the Library of Congress recommends that you find your local Rey Maualuga. Anger him; this may be done by staring directly at him or at a picture of him, breathing oxygen in his vicinity, or even standing too closely to him in days that end in "y." Then wait behind as many blockers as you like for desired results. He'll find you.

(BTW: What in the hell is wrong with UCLA's protections? Olson was sacked five times in the game against Utah. West coast offense short pass three step drop quick protect whaAAAA?)

Fun with iVideo – I’m guessing the odds are good that the tackler himself put this clip together.

I picture watching it, and cackling madly – and that scares me.

That video would have been a lot better if they could have showed the slowmo part a few more times.

Ron Burgundy: I’m proud of you fellas. You all kept your head on a swivel, and that’s what you gotta do when you find yourself in a vicious cock fight.

1:1 Odds that the returner pissed/crapped his pants on impact.

Please, please, please tell me that was partly the helmet coming off upon impact… because that just didn’t look humanly possible.

That “KA-THUNK” sound of the impact is oddly satisfying.

Dear UCLA,

Enjoy your new o-line coach, Bob Connelly. His finest work may be viewed here.

Just damn, that Rey Maualuga hit was brutal. I remember when it happened. I had just wandered into a bar in Jacksonville as that play was starting, wet, drunk and pissed off about Tech losing to Wake (actually more pissed that I could not find some one who closely enough resembled Reggie Ball to go UT on him… Stitchez for bitchez). Then my thoughts were thus…

Holy shit! UCLA is beating USC.
Holy shit! he may get the first down and UCLA will run out the clock.
HOOOOOLY Shit! Is that guy still alive?

I think that right there was USC’s only highlight of that game.

You are correct though, Rey is just a monster. He almost killed our wide receiver Patrick Turner with a nasty hit 3-4 days before the Idaho game because PT had told him he was going to go Randy Moss on him. PT had to be taken out of practice, and sent for X-rays. He ended up being unable to play for the Idaho game.

Patrick Turner’s quote back to Rey was pretty funny as well. Supposedly, after finally getting up from the hit, he turned to Rey and said in shock: What the F@#$, Rey, before limping off the field with some help.

For some reason, the bleeped out profanity is showing up as an email link. That’s pretty hilarious.

#6: No fucking shit.

by PeteJayhawk on Sep 20, 2007 4:45 PM EDT reply actions  

Actually, that play (or one of those many hits on Olson) has caused Olson to be benched against UW. Pat Cowan (he who beat USC) will be starting, even though he is not at 100%. At least Pat Cowan will make the other team work for their INTs instead of throwing them directly to the other team.

Maybe it was UCLA’s WRs who gave Olson that concussion in the locker room after the game…

if that’s true than he sucks for not mixing in some death metal or gangsta rap.

by gerry dorsey on Sep 20, 2007 5:22 PM EDT reply actions  

I think if you watch that USC clip in slow motion, you’ll see Maualuga mouth the words, “I own the police.”

  1. exactly!

The hit doesn’t look as scary in real-time. Just a good hit. But in slo-mo… dang! It has to be the helmet lifting up and then coming back because of the chin strap, otherwise that kid got turned into giraffe-neck Murton Hanks by that hit.
Crazy stuff.

Derek Pegues says it’s easy to JACK someone up who’s smaller than you. How about BHMFAU-ing up a guy who’s got 40 lbs and 4 or 5 inches on yo azz?

What’s with the “Time to Talk” banner ad??

As a gainfully employed, tax paying gator grad with four UF degrees, I am deeply offended. I have no children, and I choose to smoke pot every day (as I have since I was 12). Do I need to pay for this site to keep you from whoring yourself out to unscrupulouas marketers? You are on the verge of becoming NBC (which has been banned in my home since the GMC pickup “Dateline” incident nearly 15 years ago), broadcasting some ND football about which nobody should care.

This is Florida Gator football, and this is the SEC! There is no room for anti-drug messages here, or at least that’s what Jarvis Moss and Marcus Thomas told me.

If you notice on the slo-mo, just as the ball carrier’s about to move out of the right side of the frame a little part of his soul is escaping from the top of his facemask.

Angels wept, God killed a kitten and a coach had to apologize to a woozy kid for poor blocking schemes.
