Hard Knocks and balls (not footballs).

About 25-30 minutes into episode two of Hard Knocks, I decided I didn't have much content for a blog post. But then . . . balls. And, not footballs. A rookie (Ricardo Allen) tells a camera about his balls. He got hit in the nuts (his words) during training camp, and one of them grew about four-times the normal size. And he was giggly about it, which meant we, a couple of thirty-somethings who normally giggle like nine-year-old boys at ball jokes, should have been giggly, didn't have much to say.

In the next segment, the narrator states, "Of course sometimes a big pair can come in handy." The rookie and his girlfriend went zip-lining. And he wore. . . well:
A - Speaking of balls, you have to have some pretty big ones to wear that outfit.
J - (nods) And to button to the top button.
What you cannot see in that picture are his navy Superman socks paired with neon tennis shoes. Because why not zip-line in a Hawaiian shirt, superman socks, and neon kicks with a strap holding you by the balls, after you have been nicknamed "Big Balls" for having swollen balls.

And that was it; kind of disappointing.  Except for when J rewound the balls segment to watch the rookie say balls and giggle, again.

Stay tuned,
A and J
