Chargers' Travis Benjamin: Injured during spring camp

[bonehead]

Nice marmot.

..be a shame if something happened to it

I'm ready. Why does preseason always coincide with me having to go back to work? I like how Mexican soccer does it. As soon as the championship game is over, the next season begins.

Yeah but nobody cares about soccer lol.

I don't, but, in Mexico, the people care a lot about soccer. A Chivas-America game in Mexico City makes an NFL game seem like a croquet match between a couple of old ladies.

I actually think soccer is the most boring sport in the history of Earth. It's something a small child probably invented during the Stone Age. If it came down to just watching the athletes, I'd rather watch synchronized swimming or Tiddly Winks. But the fans - holy shit. Soccer fans, at least the ones in Mexico City (and I assume almost every big foreign city in the world) are insanely entertaining. When I attend, I'm not sure if I'm having the greatest time of my life or if I'm about to die. It's a roller coaster of emotions, explosions, boobs, noise, singing, butts, insulting, alcohol, fire, hugging, fucking, crying, praying, cursing, and potential violence. And that's just the ride to the stadium.

I guess it beats bull fighting or the lame event of running from them lol.

I can't watch bull fighting no matter how cool Ernest Hemingway made it seem.

I like watching bull riding though. I'm not sure there are people braver and tougher than bull riders. Never mind the danger of getting thrown from a bull and then gored - how does one maneuver one's gonads so they don't get repeatedly smacked by the bull's back?

And, with that message, I have won, or lost, the Internet. I've moved from Travis Benjamin's injury to a question about how not to get ball bashed by a bull.

hahaha...My idiot brother actually went into the corral while a bull was still running around - it had already tossed its bullrider - and briefly got on the back of the bull. The bull didn't see my brother coming. Thank god for him. I think my idiot father sort of egged him on. Ed was only nine I guess. That could have turned out poorly.

Was your Dad trying to get rid of your brother? It's a half ton of angry testosterone. Risk management tip of the day; don't fuck with anything that can throw Brock Lesnar around like a rag doll

While in the USAF I spent 10 years in Spain and also married a Spaniard, beautiful women they have, but that's another story.............................
Seen a guy killed there during The Running of the Bulls in a mid-size town called Torrejon de Ardoz which used to have an American Fighter Squadron assigned there years ago (since moved on). The bull horned him from the bottom of the rib cage and pierced his heart. Did not realize that he had died until later that day. The people that participate in the festivals help one another in those situations and they pulled him under the fencing as soon as it happened and got him medical care but it was too late.... They really know what level of danger exists in those situations but their respect for the bull to have some sort of ability to defend itself prior to being slaughtered allows them to continue the Bull Fighting and Running of the Bulls traditions, both spectacular events when witnessed!!!!!!!!!
