Everybody is getting hyped up for the Olympics. OK, so some people couldn't care any less about the Games, but that's why here. Don't forget, the Olympics aren't always just about grace, power and athleticism; sometimes, they are about moments like these.

Classic commentator comment of the day: "And it was going great...until there. When you fall from the bar like that, uh, huge deductions. You lose the element."

Contagious viral videos worth catching

Whenever we're in the mood for stupid videos, there's only one place we turn to and that's StupidVideos.com. Duh! Anyways, we found a goldmine of stupidity/hilarity when we paid our most recent visit. First, we've got one of the sickest submissions you'll ever see in a mixed martial arts competition.

Let's see Rampage or Forrest Griffin do that on Saturday night.

Next up, is a video of a horse attempting a back flip.

Wait, did we say attempting a back flip? Sorry, we meant to say attempting to commit murder on its jockey.

Odds and Ends: Chris Snyder redefines the word injury

Other than gasping, dropping to our knees, rolling around on the ground and muttering "uggggh" and "owwww" under our breath, we really don't know what else to say about this.

Catcher Chris Snyder left Monday night's game after getting hit by a foul tip in the groin area. About an hour before Tuesday's game the Diamondbacks put him on the 15-day disabled list with a left testicular fracture.

Snyder will undergo surgery on Wednesday with Melvin hoping his return is relatively soon.

"Hopefully looking at a 15-day period, where he is back after the All-Star break," Melvin said after the D-Backs 8-6 loss to the Brewers on Tuesday night.

Fractured testicle!? We didn't even know it was possible to fracture your nuts. Smash, yes. Crush, yes. Pulverize, yes. But fracture? Ugh, we're starting to get dizzy just talking about it.

Odds and Ends: As if the restrooms at sports stadiums aren't disgusting enough already

This is seriously one of the sickest old men man ever and he's exactly why parents need to keep an eye on their kids at all times when attending a ball game.

A man whose trial two years ago made public a long-held fetish for drinking the urine of young boys has surfaced again in the Columbus area.

And according to complaints filed with Dublin police, his fetish still has him helpless to resist it. ...

Official reports indicate he has been observed putting Saran wrap on toilet seats in public, sports-related venues with the apparent intent to drink any urine collected there.

It was that practice that drew Patton to the attention of Gahanna authorities in 2006. During his trial, authorities said he collected urine from boys at a movie theater -- and at times even paid for it.

Seriously, not even Herbert the Pervert would do something that gross.

David Beckham's displays of accuracy and power are unparalleled

We've heard of "bending it like Beckham," but this is more along the lines of "bashing it like Beckham."

Interesting, we would have never thought to spray our crotches with water after a blow like that. Of course, our shorts would have already been drenched from the moment we saw the kick coming.

No anal fissures here (sorry Kaz Matsui), but these are still some really strange injuries

We called in sick to work today and told our boss that we were "murdered and then set on fire" while celebrating our birthdays. He's a total moron, so he bought it, but we have to bring in a doctor's note which we'll be forging during Judge Judy this afternoon. Anyways, while we were surfing the web and finishing off a six-pack of Bud Ice, we came across The Hungry Actor's list of Top 10 Strange Sports Injuries and realized that our excuse wasn't so farfetched after all.

10. Brian Griese trips over his pet poodle and sprains his ankle.

9. John Smoltz burns himself while ironing a shirt he was wearing.

8. Tom Glavine breaks a rib while vomiting up an inflight meal.

7. Brandon Inge pulls his oblique while readjusting a pillow on his couch.

6. Glenallen Hill, an extreme arachnaphobic had a nightmare about spiders and while fleeing the spiders he fell into a glass table and received multiple cuts over his entire body.

5. Denny McLain goes to sleep in good health and wakes up with four dislocated toes.

4. Muggsy Bogues misses the second half after accidentally inhaling the fumes from an ointment being used in a halftime treatment.

3. Adam Eaton stabs himself in the stomach with a paring knife trying to remove the packaging of a DVD.

2. Clarence "Climax" Blethen thought he looked meaner when he pitched without his false teeth in. Unfortunately for him he left them in his back pocket while sliding into second and he bit himself on butt.

1. Bret Barberie failed to wash his hands, after making nachos with hot sauce and chili peppers, before he put in his contact lenses. The extreme burning cause him to miss one game.

Honorable Mention: Chris Hanson misses while chopping wood and severely cuts his leg landing himself on the DL for the season; Lionel Simmons developed tendinitis from playing too many video games; Manny Cordova falls asleep in a tanning bed and receives burns so severe he has to miss time; Sammy Sosa sneezes multiple times in the clubhouse prompting a series of back spasms which puts him out of the lineup.

We call dibs on No. 5. We're planning on calling in sick next Monday too. Three-day 4th of July weekend, here we come!

Famous last words: "Somebody have 9-1 dialed"

So, how do you know when it's time to start on a diet? Well, you could hop on a scale or visit the doctor or take your shirt off in public and see how many people point and giggle OR you can hop on skateboard, attempt to drop into a halfpipe and if the wood smashes underneath your fallen body then it's time to lay off the Twinkies. After all, those ramps should be able to support the weight of a stoner following a 50-foot freefall.

If you can't make it out to the driving range and you've really got an itching to smack some balls then the safest place to aim would be into a massive body of water, right? Well, sorta; depends on who you're trying to protect.
