The following hilariously-accurate, beer-spilling headshot took place on Tuesday at a rugby game. I want to say it’s rugby because the YouTube channel is “PremiershipRugby” and the title involves the phrase “Man hit on head at rugby match,” but I’m not saying for sure, because I never get it right. When I write about rugby, it’s Australian Rules Football. When I write about Australian Rules Football, it’s rugby. I’ll just say this: this guy got hit in the head with a ball during rugby, Australian rules football, freestyle soccer, Super Dodge Ball, European rules quidditch or HeadBeerBall. One of those six.

The one guarantee from the clip is that it didn’t happen in the United States, because the guy who got cranked with a rugby ball was a good sport about it and laughed it off instead of flipping out about it on Twitter and suing everybody. Two concession stand beers is a small price to pay for rugby fan viral video glory, right?

This should happen in every sport. The Big Lead mentioned that they’d like to see this happen in more in the lower deck at NBA games, but hell, let’s make it happen across the board. I want to see Aaron Rodgers knock the cheese off somebody’s head for fun.

In the more graphic version of Jose Reyes losing a ball in the sun and looking like an idiot, a Cubs fan reached out for a ball, fell over the railing and lost a piece of his scalp on the ground. A PIECE OF HIS SCALP. The close-up of it makes it even grosser. You know you’re unhealthy when you can’t fall down without part of your head coming off. (via Sportress Of Blogitude)

On Friday, I wrote a piece for Progressive Boink ranking the 15 worst fighters in the 1988 film Bloodsport. After watching this video, seeing someone get knocked out by an exaggerated movie spin kick and watching 17 seconds of utter MMA futility, I might have to go back and add Keegan Hornstra to the list.

The fight starts around the 4:30 mark and is over two kicks later, so don’t blink. Bruce Boyington has more difficulty with the cage than with Keegan Hornstra.

Here’s to hoping the fans who paid to get into NEF Fight Night 3 found something fun to do with the rest of their night. Not a lot to do in Lewiston, Maine. Catch seafood in wire crates, watch guys get spin-kicked to death … yeah, I’m spent.

"Hey bro, you okay, bro?"

On Friday, the 76th annual IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship got underway in Finland and Sweden, and the U.S. team laid a 7-2 hurting on Team France for anyone who might have missed the game (translated: errbody). Obviously, France was pretty pissed off about that humiliating defeat, so the Fightin’ Eiffels came out swinging pretty hard against Kazakhstan yesterday. France won the game 6-3, but that’s not what anyone is talking about today.

The game featured 63 penalty minutes in total, but the biggest hit of the game belonged to 24-year old French forward Sacha Treille, who laid a vicious shoulder shot to Roman Starchenko’s head-ish/neck-ish regions, knocking him out cold. Treille received a major and match penalty, good enough for an ejection, and the hit will be reviewed by the IIHF disciplinary panel.

Sadly, I think this means I have to retire my Zinedine Zidane headbutt GIF as my favorite French sports cheap shot. I think it’s worth it, though.
