Who Says Soccer Is For Wusses?

OK, I don't ever want to hear some jock-talk radio idiot say that soccer is a game for pansies any more. Consider the game that Chavdar Yankow had for Hannover 96 this past weekend in the German Bundeslige. During the first half, Yankow took a foot in his groin during a tackle that resulted in a three-inch gash in his penis. It would eventually take six sttiches to finally fix up, but team docs managed to patch him up sufficiently for him to continue playing - he even scored a goal! Hannover (including American defender Steve Cherundolo) beat Frankfurt 2-0.
