Great game. Scariest basketball injury ever.

exvaxman		2013-03-31 07:44:52 PM

My kid is still laughing three minutes after I read your headline to him stubby. Good job.

Mwahaha...this one.

I didn't get to watch the game, and I refuse to watch the injury... but on a scale of 1 to Theismann, how bad was the injury?

/Saw the Theismann video once, which was more than enough

Bad enough that they killed the live feed. Bad enough that you don't want to see the replay even if you're curious, unless you're a total sadist.

The Dookie took the shot, and all of a sudden, everything jumped ahead a few seconds.

Theismann, possibly even a wee bit beyond (seeing as in general one just wears shorts in basketball, versus pants in football).

Seriously just hope the kid comes out OK in the end...

They dumped the feed when the injury happened. That's how bad it was.

One minute play going on...next minute all the Louisville players were on the floor crying

VvonderJesus		2013-03-31 08:38:20 PM

I'm not going to watch the footage, seeing a still picture was enough for me.

KiwDaWabbit		2013-03-31 08:38:56 PM

Theismann tweeted well wishes for Ware, assuming it was legitimate.

Theismann. Scale may need to be recalibrated bad, in fact.

What they said. Ware is the new Theismann.

I saw one Twitter post that said a couple players on the Lville bench actually vomited when they saw it right there in from of them.

Kevin72		2013-03-31 08:39:18 PM

Congratulations, Drew!

PS, you know who else predicted that Louisville would beat Duke?

/Hint: element 47.
//He didn't predict Duke's loss per se, but did predict Louisville most likely to go all the way.

Theismann

IT'S OVER 9 THEISMANNS!

Outlaw2097		2013-03-31 08:39:39 PM

i got a kick out of this headline

Triumph		2013-03-31 08:40:27 PM

Anybody remember when Letterman did the Joe Theismann pencil sharpener sketch? That was so tasteless, NBC has eradicated any trace of it.

skylabdown		2013-03-31 08:40:33 PM

I usually watch this stuff, but I would recommend not watching it.

This evening I was having dinner with a friend at a local bar/tavern and when the showed the first replay, everyone in the restaurant just started groaning and yelling. You could hear forks and knives falling onto plates.

R.A.Danny		2013-03-31 08:40:38 PM

I thought the Ventura leg break was worse then the Theisman. The Seau arm break gave me the dry heaves.

Point02GPA		2013-03-31 08:40:48 PM

Breaking news?

it was a flop. Bad acting.

Well, part of his leg was flopping.

ArgusRun		2013-03-31 08:41:29 PM

1.5 Theismanns at least. Think Theismann + Malarchuk.

VERY GRAPHIC CONTENT. You will be able to see the bone sticking out of the leg.

For those who missed it.

This is one of those things where I'm curious just so I know what people are talking about, but can't bring myself to watch it because that sort of thing just doesn't sit well with me.

WhyteRaven74		2013-03-31 08:42:07 PM

hershy799: but on a scale of 1 to Theismann, how bad was the injury?

worse than Theisman since well you could see it's a compound fracture

He just set a whole new bar.

Bisu		2013-03-31 08:42:35 PM

Principal Clarinet: Scariest basketball injury ever.

It's not like it's the first time this has happened in NCAA basketball. It happened at a game I was at, and I imagine it's happened many other times. But yes, any time a bone is sticking out through a player's skin it's pretty scary.

Didn't see the game, or the injury... but I know that the hospital where he was taken (Methodist Hospital in Indy) is the one that puts Indy 500 drivers back together after they hit the wall.

I think they keep miracles in stock there.

I caved, and clicked. What has been seen cannot be unseen.

Cincinnati Kid		2013-03-31 08:44:07 PM

CBS showed a couple of replays before they decided that enough was enough. The one angle where you could see the bone sticking out convinced me I didn't need to see it again.

Birnone		2013-03-31 08:44:15 PM

I'd say this was 9/Theismans

That's because this guy didn't have a pile of players on top of him while his broken bones were sticking out of his skin and splinters of bone were grinding around among the torn flesh and muscle.

Myria		2013-03-31 08:44:28 PM

Did the bone go through the skin? I don't want to watch the video to find out...

What year was he? Also, I don't know anything about their team - was he a star on the team?

ArtosRC		2013-03-31 08:45:07 PM

Saw the video on Youtube. Between this and Lattimore's gruesome injury, it's a toss-up.

I mean, it's horrific. Louisville better honor that scholarship.

WhyteRaven74		2013-03-31 08:45:13 PM

Cincinnati Kid: The one angle where you could see the bone sticking out convinced me I didn't need to see it again.

I'm pretty sure they didn't initially realize you could see that and hence the replays but once they saw that, that was the end of it.

ds_4815		2013-03-31 08:45:29 PM

hershy799: On a scale of 1 to Theismann, how bad was the injury?

0.91 Malarchuks

Yes it did. And he's a sophomore.

KiwDaWabbit		2013-03-31 08:46:35 PM

Myria: Did the bone go through the skin?

Yes, it was a compound fracture. I would estimate that it was protruding by three or four inches...difficult to say.

There aren't any pictures in the article to worry about (at least not with noscript/adblock). You can read it and find out all this in about 20 seconds.

given footballs ability to produce injuries, let's not be hasty, though yeah it's going to be hard to beat

ThatBillmanGuy		2013-03-31 08:47:14 PM

Come to our macaroni party and we'll take a nap...

/does not want to see the injury. Just hearing about it is enough. Holy fark.

Marshall Willenholly		2013-03-31 08:47:23 PM

Apparently Joe Theismann has already issued a comment on it: http://www.freep.com/usatoday/article/2040749

Trust me, you don't want to check it out. Consider yourself fortunate.

Nobody is going to call you a wuss if you don't see it because it's horrible, and I can believe it if they say players on the bench vomited when they saw that. If it was in front of me, I may very well have vomited. You just lucked out.

Sure, there are worse things in the world, and maybe the guy will still have a basketball career ahead of him, but damn, we've got really good video technology.

/no real reason to watch that again, or even one time

Yes
Sophomore
Sixth man, secondary ball handler, I believe. Not a starter, but reasonably important.
