'General Excellence' shares his concerns among some colleagues that he runz game with about the the disturbing frequency of the in-game punchasizing of the c-piece...
A disturbing trend has come to my (and probably any other basketball fans') attention this year that I believe must be addressed now to avoid any serious violation at our uber-competitive game this fall.
Of course, I am talking about the nutpunch.
Sure, it was all fun and games last year when Chris Paul punched Julius Hodge (although I'm sure Hodge would rather have that happen again than his recent gunshot wounds). It seemed to be one of those rare moments of insanity, like when Tree Rollins bit Danny Ainge in the first round of the 1983 playoffs, thereafter known as the "Tree Bites Man" incident.
But this year, it's gotten out of hand.
First it was Tony Skinn from this year's March Madness Cinderella GMU team punching a Hofstra player in his regional bracket, and whose deserved suspension elicited this classic quote from Tom Izzo: "You can't even punch a guy in the groin anymore."
Then came the extreme violation of alien/Clippers center Chris Kaman by Reggie Evans. This video also demonstrates why the TNT basketball analyst team is the best in all of sports.
And now Jason Terry gets suspended for Game 6 in a tight series for nutpunching my fellow Badger Michael Finley.
We all know that a blow to the groin is solid gold humor, but before this becomes a trend in basketball like headbands or nonsensical hanzi tattoos, let's all pledge right now that in our games, there will be nary a nutpunch.
Unless, of course, to the victors go the punching...

Now every team will need a Nutsack Enforcer, whose duty it is to dish out retaliation most stinging when the nuts of his teammates are imperiled. Who on the Wizzardds will serve as Eddie Jordan's Nutsack Enforcer next season? My guess is Ruffin.
