That's not a raspberry, it's a whole friggin orchard. That can't feel good. The bright red streaks that look like claw marks- I bet those are from cleats or a helmet. Owie.

Yeah... I think that just goes to show that it's not as easy as a lot of us fans think it is. For me it'd be hell if I had that big of a bruise on my leg. For Yoder it's probably painful but he still has a job to do through that. And I have no idea how he could've gotten a bruise that big.

I don't know if I ever saw a bruise like that. Hell I know I haven't. I hadn't even considered that possible and not be hurt in some more major fashion.

I thought he had a motorcycle accident when I first saw the photos.

That is an extreme case, he admitted that it was the worst bruise he had ever had. It is not a daily or weekly occurance. Sometimes the NFL can be rough, but it is not always that bad.

I think my thigh would have snapped in half. That's just bad. I guess that's called a deep bruise.

Yeah seriously, just what I was thinking too.

I'm guessing a bruise like that would probably take 2-3 weeks to clear up with no contact, yet Yoder will probably be knocking heads come Sunday. I never begrudge football players for the money they make, because this violent game surely reduces the quality of life for many after they're done.

It's like being in a car crash on a weekly basis.

I've seen worse, on a corpse, holy crap.
