Joe “I got a restaurant named after me” Theismann
Ok, we’re going to stop this at 5 because there’s absolutely shed-loads of breaks out there and it’s more fun if you guys name the odd one or two and argue about which is the worst…plus I’ve just noticed someone from a tabloid has gone for a similar angle article as me and just slapped up a load of sporting injuries that they’ve Googled rather than remembered. It’s all about the shares, gotta get those bonuses.
I played American football and remember seeing this Theismann injury on videos. Yeah, VHS, fo sho homie. Theismann is one of those American football legendary quarterbacks; he’s got titles and accolades coming out his rear end, blah blah blah. Anyway, on a televised Monday Night Football game, Washington Redskins quarterback (ball thrower), Theismann, was sacked (rugby tackled), by New York Giants linebacker (big dude that wants to fuck you up), Lawrence Taylor.
Doesn’t sound like much, but Taylor is a big guy and his whole weight was resting on one side of Theismann’s leg, which effectively said, ‘aint no friggin way I’m taking this weight, Joe’, and subsequently snapped. Oh, and he really does have a restaurant called Joe Theismann’s Restaurant — I found it on Wikipedia and everything!
