Napoleon McCallum. "oh lord...don't look at this if you don't want to see it"

Theismann's was much worse. A lot of you guys probably weren't even born or very young when LT did it. It wasn't so much the actual injury; it was the sound and the number of replays MNF did.

I don't remember the sound from Theismann's. I only got to see it from the tape archive at work. (edit: just watched on the link...it's subtle but gross).

That said, nothing will ever erase my mental image of McCallum's knee bent 90 degrees the wrong way. I think since Theismann there have been a number as awful as his (Alou, Ventura, Sid Vicious[or whatever his name was], Ruben Mateo, McGahee, Livingston)
