Arizona Cardinals' wide receiver Anquan Boldin is unquestionably a stud. Less than a month ago, he took a nuclear helmet-to-helmet hit from Jets safety Eric Smith that left him with a fractured sinus and misaligned upper jaw. Doctors had to cut the jaw bone on both sides, move it back into alignment, and secure it with permanent plates. Guess what? -- this Sunday, he wants to and will get back on the field and play. Let's look at the hit (ish still makes me cringe):
And this is why athletes have bloated paychecks. I ain't mad at 'em for their show me the money mentality. Lord knows if any of us as much as slips and falls at our place of employment, rather than shake it off, we're dialing up an attorney faster than a black athlete can swoop down on a white girl. Oops, did I say that?
i remember watching the game.
when this happened, my eyes O_O
