Does Charlie Daniels scare the shit out of French guys acting like cowboys (note him hiding behind the cactus)? I’m pretty sure the NIT found this as a way to finally generate some interest; perhaps all they need is an official name change to the “Nad Impact Tournament.” Tuesday night was a real nut-buster jamboree, as evidenced by the number Seton Hall’s Herb Pope landed on Texas Tech’s  Darko Cohadarevic and “aww, that’s bullshit” approach of Jackson State’s Phillip Williams.

Once you get to the NBA, the nut-shot can come from your own coach. But it isn’t just the roundballers who like to get their shots in. Check this poke in the poker courtesy of the NHL. Yes, there is a rule that says you must mention a certain Penguin douchebag if you use the term “NHL,” thankfully Sidney Crosby’s was a relevant contribution. It’s everywhere, people even try to set records. Face it America, we are fascinated by groin shots. Why else would somebody have created “Punch Me In The Nuts Barney?”

Really, satisfying this need for nut shots is the only reason Youtube exists. Where else can you see golfers that have never heard the term “divot,” the obligatory skateboarder totally getting what he deserves, and today’s “What could possibly go wrong?” moment, courtesy of a potato gun and two plastic buckets intended to serve as “armor.”

There’s a reason those videos get viewers, and I’m just one of the twenty million reasons.
