Alk Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Pennington has near death experience The News For a brief moment as he lay writhing on the turf after being tackled by Texans defensive end Mario Williams, Chad Pennington thought he had met his maker. "I thought I wasn't going to make it. If anybody ever had that happen, you know it's the worst feeling in the world. You're sitting there like, 'Oh my goodness, I'm not going to make it.' Right here on the football field. But things worked out well." the quarterback told the Newark Star-Ledger after having the breath knocked out of him during Sunday's win. Our View Pennington was writhing in pain for several minutes, and it first appeared as if he had re-injured his surgically-repaired right shoulder. After the scare, he walked off the field exhorting the crowd with both arms, then returned one play later en route to a 286-yard, one-touchdown performance. Clearly, Pennington is okay, and anyone depending on any members of the Jets passing attack are relieved he didn't hurt the shoulder again. The wind knocked out of him? Yep, this guy is tough as nails I tell ya... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually while playing high school football I was speared on two different occasions and had the wind knocked out of me. Did it suck? You bet. Did I think I was going to die? The thought never even crossed my mind. Chad has a noodle brain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't a Patriots board, last I knew. You know what they say about dishing it out, Alk. No harm, no foul; only a ribbing on your part, but you can't expect people to let it slide on a Jets board without retort - which goes on ad nauseum on some days. All's fair in love and war.

DireJet38 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 When did they start playing football in Kansas? 8 man football. Kijana Carter must've steam rolled Alk a couple of times.

Alk Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 8 man football. Kijana Carter must've steam rolled Alk a couple of times. Jets fans vs. Pats fans from this board...tackle football game... I don't think there is any question who would win that one. Did KiJana play 8 man? We actually played 11 man but there were schools on both sides of us that played 8 man. There was even a school north of us in Nebraska that played 6 man. Of course there is no question who would win in a game only because there aren't even enough Patriots fans to field a team although with my golden arm, all I really need is one good WR.

Not to downplay your varsity high school football injury, but when you get clobbered by Mario Williams, it might be a little more intense than getting hit by the Hardware store clerk.

But Tony couldn't fly . . . Tony died Repeat Refrain: Brian got busted on a narco rap He beat the rap by rattin' on some bikers He said, hey, I know it's dangerous, but it sure beats Riker's But the next day he got offed by the very same bikers Repeat Refrain; repeat song to Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe that you have only had the wind knocked out of you once, otherwise you would realize that there are more traumatic episodes and less traumatic ones. Yes, I'm aware that there are different fractures. Are you telling me that the weight of the person hitting you determines which fracture you get? I had the wind knocked out of me twice and they both pretty much sucked but I never once thought I was going to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Yeah, Chad is such a puss, he played a 1/4 of the season with a frayed labrum that was hurting him and in pain. And then, he comes back early from re-hab, gets it torn again in-game, and volunteers to go back in the game. Then he endures the struggle of coming back from surgery TWICE, mind you, just so he can have the privilege of keyboqard toughies telling him how "soft" he is. I pray that ALK's kids never come home crying because they are hurt, so that we can all question their intestinal fortitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raffyD Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Some friends and I were playing in an abandoned public diving pool in Brooklyn some 25 years ago and I slipped down into the diving pool (very steep) and when I landed had the wind knocked out of me pretty bad. And yes, I thought I was going to die for a second or two because the pain and lack of air was that severe. i.e., go **** yourself alk and worry about your own mediocre team as we have more than enough guys worrying about ours.
