Dante Wesley Absolutely Destroys Clifton Smith
First thing's first: I'm not a fan of football. To me it's a pointless game that, with the exception of the quarterback, requires very little skill. The players run a few feet, fall down on top of each other and then get back up to do it all over again. Simply put it's not my cup of tea.
With that being said I know a nasty cheap shot when I see one, and this is definitely one of those times.
What I'd like to know is where the hell were Smith's teammates? If this was another sport -- say, hockey for instance -- Wesley wouldn't have made it to the locker room without the help of a few smelling salts. Sure, Smith's teammates looked like they wanted to do something, but the fact of the matter remains that they didn't.
Some are inevitably going to say that this hit was a case of poor timing or just a mistake made by a player intent on doing his job. I say this is nothing short of a dirty hit made by a jackass with absolutely no regard for the safety or well being of the other players around him.
Head shots are nothing to fuck around with.

his team mates were no where in sight because it was a fair catch. They have to get away or a repeat of the skins-panthers game would happen
ReplyDeleteI believe it's called handegg, not football.
ReplyDeleteno skill? id like to see you go out and do what they do. u cant. period.
ReplyDeleteAnd who the hell watches hockey anymore, bunch of little girls ice skating. Football is a mans sport so ur cup of tea must be a gay one
My cup of tea is a sport that involves something other than a bunch of overpaid idiots running up and down a field.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's some tough talk for a guy that posts anonymously. Seriously dude, if you want to talk some shit at least be a man and either sign in or use a name. And as for the verbal diarrhea you spouted about "doing what they do," I played hockey -- a sport that involves real skill -- for over 20 years. I know that might not mean much to a fantasy football all-star such as yourself, but to those of us living in the real world it counts as human interaction.
ReplyDeleteNow get the fuck off my blog before I make you look even more silly.
Its called throwball, get the fucking sport right. Football is what ignorant americans call soccer. Easy there tough guy cranium, i better get off your site too
ReplyDeleteSome idiots running up and down a field? As opposed to a couple of idiots skating up and down an ice ring?
ReplyDeleteNasty hit though! Good call on the umpire's part...
Ok I don't really get American football, based primarily on the fact I live in Australia. But from What I do understand of the rules, that's a cheap shot right there, at least make it look like you're going for the ball. The virtue of padding means no real harm done.
ReplyDeleteAs opposed to Australian Rules Football, which I played, till facturing a vertebra. Go look that one up on Youtube - Bigger hits and NO pads.
LMAO @ "ice ring."
ReplyDeleteAnd who the fuck calls it throwball? No one except ignorant Europeans I'm guessing.
Throwball. Too funny. No wonder you dumb shits are so behind the rest of the world. You have all your sports mixed up.
You guys are all dumb that is why I play a real sport: TENNIS BITCHES!
ReplyDeleteIt was a cheap shot, and is to say not to many players know the rules of the game. He must not, but who cares football is a pointless game anyways. It does not require many skill other than to just hit hard, jump on top of people,run and for some be able to catch and hold the ball. Probably all he knows is just to run fast and hit hard without, in his mind any care for others. What comes around goes around and I'm sure other football players will have him in mind when they play against him and give him what he deserves.
ReplyDeleteYou're a moron. Just like the guy in the video.
ReplyDeleteHockey is a skill sport
ReplyDeleteRugby as well
American Football is definiately a skill sport at every position. Just b/c you dont understand the techniques doesnt mean they dont exist.
Also American Football has the most elite athletes of any professional sport. Much Bigger, stronger and faster than any other. Pads are required when the average player is over 1.9m tall and 105kgs. And each team has guys much bigger than that. If these guys played Rugby with any group of athletes from any other sport in the world a match wouldn't last 5 minutes b/c all the non-American football players would be on the ground crying and bleeding. Truth is, Aussie Rugby toughguys wouldn't look so tough going against American footballers that have every athletic and physical advantage.
Really?
ReplyDeleteRugby tough guys on the ground crying?
Take the pads off American footballers and throw them in a rugby match.Sorry but it would be the Yanks lying on the ground bleeding and crying.That is a whole new level of vicious that non-rugby players would have a big problem with.
You're right though.The match wouldn't last much more than 5 minutes.Just not for the reason you think.
the reason why football players require pads is so they don't cry when getting hit.
ReplyDeletelook the fact is that rugby and football players are tough!! The pads make the hits harder. the game is faster in the gridiron. No skill?? well that is bs and all of you know it, all pro sports take skill. no hits like the one you just saw ever happen in rugby becasue they dont have pads on.
ReplyDeleteIf that hit happened without pads, the hittee would have a broken neck and/or jaw and the hitter would have broken his collarbone. The pads are there for a reason.
