The Pantheon of Badassery: Chris Simms

So, I’m sure you’ve all heard about Chris Simms by now. For those of you that haven’t, here’s the gist of what went down.

During the entire Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Carolina Panters game, Chris Simms, since he’s on Tampa Bay, got beaten up pretty badly. He took some big hits really early, and he was kind of laboring the whole game. He looked like he’d hurt his ribs, and his teammates even said he looked hurt from the first quarter on.

Well, as we all know now, it turns out Chris Simms may have played basically the entire Tampa Bay/Carolina game (aside from part of the third quarter) with a ruptured fucking spleen, in addition to suffering from vomiting and dehydration (which might have to do with, I don’t know, blowing out an internal organ?).

It got so bad he left the game during the third quarter for treatment, then came out in the fourth quarter and led a scoring drive. Then they took him to the hospital, gave him a blood transfusion, and removed his spleen.

You think you would notice if you blew out your spleen, wouldn’t you? Even if it came on that vicious hit in the fourth quarter (which seems to be the common belief), he still finished the game out despite the fact that, had things not gone right, he could be dead right now.

Maybe Chris Simms is tougher than I could have ever imagined. Maybe he’s just that fucking stupid. Or maybe these guys spend so much time hurt what’s one more new ache and pain? Either way, I have a new level of respect for Phil’s son.

Speaking of Phil and the inevitable comparisons to the old man, could the old man have blown out an internal organ and still played the game? I’m not sure; it’s a hell of an injury to withstand. I guess it depends on if Lawrence Taylor switched water bottles with him.

Playing with a ruptured spleen is pretty fucking amazing, but not nearly as amazing as the fact that Chris Simms is able to stuff his gigantic balls into his pants without the aid of a crowbar. My hat’s off to you, man.

Yeah, Chris pretty much gets the Grapefruits Award. Phil pretty much was hurt from draft day to retirement. Chris is probably fucking dense for playing hurt, but I hope he gets better. He deserves a lot better than Tampa Gay's sieve offensive line.

"He deserves a lot better than Tampa Gay's sieve offensive line."

Congratulations, Rich. You managed to slander gays, sieves, and collanders in one fell swoop. Unlike Tampa's offensive line, sieves can stop solid objects from getting through them, and no self-respecting fag would be caught dead in those pewter unis.

More and more people are caring the http://www.hylaptopbattery.com">laptop battery’s life now.They want to know how to use so their http://www.hylaptopbattery...."> inspiron 1525 battery,http://www.hylaptopbattery....">pavilion dv6000 battery or http://www.hylaptopbattery....">hp g60 battery can last longer time.Well,let me give u some useful tips.
1.Keep your http://www.hylaptopbattery....">1525 battery or http://www.hylaptopbattery....">inspiron 1545 battery cool. http://www.hylaptopbattery....">Dell 1525 battery degrade more quickly when they're hot.That means you should keep vents clear -- don't put your laptop on a fluffy pillow or a cushioned surface that will cover vents and trap heat.
2.Don't pack your laptop away in a backpack or other enclosed space when the http://www.hylaptopbattery....">dv6000 battery is still warm, trapping the heat. The http://www.hylaptopbattery....">hp dv6000 battery that's frequently hot to the touch will lose life a lot faster than the http://www.hylaptopbattery....">pavillion dv6000 battery that isn't constantly being stressed. Worst of all: If your laptop crashes or refuses to shut off properly, the http://www.hylaptopbattery....">hp dv 6000 battery can get extremely hot when packed away in your bag. Check it to make sure it hasn't gotten dangerously hot while stowed away over the weekend.
3.Don't charge your laptop constantly. If you only occasionally take your laptop away from a power outlet, but leave it plugged in to charge 24/7, you're leaving your laptop in a state of perpetual charge at the 100% point -- and that is bad for the http://www.hylaptopbattery....">g60 battery 's long-time health.
4.If you tend to use your laptop mainly at your desk, exercise your http://www.hylaptopbattery....">hp dv4 battery by running it down and recharging it once or (even better) twice a month.
5.Alternately, you might want to physically remove the http://www.hylaptopbattery....">dv4 battery if you're using the laptop at your desk for long stretches of time. If you do remove it, don't store it in a fully charged or depleted state. It's best to store it in the middle -- between 40 and 50 percent of full charge.
