I know it's O/T, but how could these guys go without a cup? I had a running back step on mine in college and break it in half during a game. That hurt like hell and my balls were swelled for a couple days, BUT I would have been in the fuckin hospital if I had been wearing compression shorts. And besides, if I had played defense against a QB not wearing a cup, the first time he was down...well let's just say he would have stayed down and #2 would have been coming in. Could he be wearing a cup and it's just that small?
