Nuts!

It’s always painful watching videos like this, but the good news is that Southern Cal freshman forward Leonard Washington definitely has some “bad testicular karma” heading his way in the near future.

Which is the last sort of bad karma you want “hanging around” you.

Anyway, it may be forty years from now, but the forces of nature are most assuredly going to rise up on this kid’s gonads after he sucker-punched Oklahoma forward Blake Griffin squarely in the nuts during a nationally-televised college basketball game Thursday night – and then threw his arms up in the air as if to say “who … what … me?”

“That is about as dirty, nasty and awful a thing as I’ve ever seen a young man do,” said one of the ESPN announcers, watching multiple replays of the crotch shot.

According to the AP, Washington threw an “elbow below the waistline.” Except that it wasn’t an elbow, it was a sucker punch, and “below the waistline” really doesn’t effectively describe the location.

From With Leather:

BALLS. (Griffin) got smacked in the balls. And not with an elbow. Announcers and journalists being pussies like this is why people read blogs. Because we don’t cheat you out of the opportunity to talk about nut shots. I’m all about the genitals, baby. I keep my nose to the groinstone.

Damn straight, people.

Sadly, this punk has a history of playing dirty, although this latest incident certainly takes the cake.

Interestingly enough, we consulted our resident karma expert Sharon Stone about this whole situation, and she said the only way Washington could avoid contracting testicular cancer at some point in his life is to not only apologize to Griffin, but to spread ‘em and let the law of Hammurabi take its course.

A nut for a nut, people. That’s how Sharon Stone rolls …
