This Is The Most Vicious Ankle-Breaker You'll See All Summer

This was more “one man to beat on a punt return for six” than some face up half-court tough-nosed defense gone awry, but ankles were snatched regardless. Like it wasn’t so much Harden staring down Wesley Johnson

As much as it was Devin Hester planting his foot in the ground, making one decisive cut and leaving the last line of defense in his dust.

Breakaway, second-level speed like you read about. Shook Nala right off the screen. She’s somewhere in the crowd consoling the child of a wealthy family sitting courtside because she just spilled his soda pop. Ushers are rushing over, towels in tow, cleaning up the spillage so that play can resume. Jeff Van Gundy is complaining that coaches should never be fired. That gazelle (or antelope I have no fucking clue) made one of the plays of a generation and gets the lovely prize of staying alive for several more days before another, stealthier lioness comes up on the schedule. Now that there’s film on this fella and his juke has been properly scouted, he’s fucked.

PS – And, perhaps I should have led with this, WHO THE FUCK IS JUST IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS RECORDING WITH THEIR CAMERA? WHAT KIND OF LUNATIC JUST GOES OUT INTO NATURE AND FILMS WILDLIFE UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL FOR THE BENEFIT OF US – THE VIEWER AT HOME? (Barstool Outdoors Season 1, Episode 1 is out NOW!)
