SUCKS TO BE Vinh Pham, guy who lost his nuts at a Super Bowl party

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

ow-my-balls-idiocracyPeyton Manning may have lost a bit of confidence after Sunday’s Super Bowl loss to the New Orleans Saints. But as it turns out, one fan in Florida had even more skin in the game than the two teams testing their manhood on the gridiron.

As if it weren’t punishment enough to listen to Carrie Underwood shatter glass with her off-key rendition of the National Anthem or to watch a group of geriatrics perform a snoozefest of songs that even they struggle to remember, 42-year-old Vinh Pham went home after a Superbowl party in Key West with a bottle of Bud Light decorating his face and a set of punctured testicles.

Allegedly, Pham was asked to leave the party at around 2 a.m. by Y Le, the host of the pigskin bash. Pham refused, so Le not only proceeded to kick his ass but also unleashed a fistful of fury on his balls.

Sucks to be cracking peanuts between your fingers one minute, then experiencing things from the perspective of those nuts the next.

SUCKS TO BE suddenly watching the Suporn Bowl

"Dad is that Kurt Warner or Larry Fitzgerald?"

"Dad is that Kurt Warner or Larry Fitzgerald?"

“Warner back to pass. He launches one to Fitzgerald. What a catch! To the 50…40…30…ooh harder, faster, harder faster, yeah that’s it baby….ooooh give it to me good.”

And so was the unfortunate Super Bowl play-by-play for a handful of viewers in Arizona. You see, just as their beloved Cardinals were mounting a comeback, the game was unexpectedly interrupted by some actual mounting. XXX style.

Yes, a little porn break was thrust upon them (so to speak).

The clip itself  lasted only 30 seconds. But certainly the conversations between dads and Cardinal-clad children endured considerably longer. In fact, given what the youngsters were exposed to,  the ’splainin’ may still be going on.

“Daddy, why was the lady kissing the man there? Did he have a boo boo?” “Now tell me again, daddy, why the man was moaning like he was hurt, but was actually happy.” “Is doing that with your thingy a 10 yard or a 15 yard penalty?”

In short, the pornommercial was a game stopper. A TV-turner-offer. A spend-the-rest-of-the-night-tap-dancing-around-the-questions sort of thing. Sucky for any fan of any team who’s in the Big Game. But when your team is in the championship once every half a century or so, it’s sucky to the XLIII power.

So to all the Arizona fans who witnessed a Cardinal loss and several dozen cardinal sins, it sucks to be you.

SUCKS TO BE Scott Norwood, Super loser

"&(*!!$(*#$*$%! you, Scott!"

"&(*!!$(*#$*$%! you, Scott!"

In honor of tomorrow’s Super Bowl, STBY brings you the story of former Buffalo Bills placekicker Scott Norwood. Eighteen Super Bowls ago, Mr. Norwood missed a 47-yard last-second field goal, giving the New York Giants the win and all Bills fans a sharp stab in the heart.

It was a kick that will live in infamy.

You see, after the oh-so-near miss, the Bills went on to lose four straight Super Bowls. None were as close as the game Norwood coulda, shoulda won. And, if you ask any Bills  fan, Scotty is solely responsible for the 18 sucky years that followed.

He jinxed them.

Football historians rank Norwood’s choke job as among the best (or worst) in Super Bowl history.

It was so bad, in fact, Wikipedia has a separate listing, describing his one single kick.

But that’s not why it sucks to be Scott Norwood. It sucks to be Scott Norwood because every year, exactly at this time,  he looks out his window and finds on his front porch a throng of  reporters looking to trudge up the memories and a gaggle of drunken pissed off Bills fans looking for revenge.

“What would you have done differently, Scott?” (Uh, made it.)

“Can you tell us your feeling after the miss?” (Uh, pretty much like they are right now…shitty)

“Do you have any words for Bills fans?” (Yeah, quit throwing eggs at my awnings.)

So, Scott, this week, for the 18th time, it sucks to be you. But look on the bright side — in a month it’s baseball season. And we can start harassing Bill Buckner again.
