Cheerleader Kicks Player In The Face During Introductions Causing Him To Reportedly Miss The Playoffs

Never seen anything like this is putting it lightly. Seems like something out of Saved By The Bell. 

Or the type of thing that only happens to Frank The Tank's teams, just completely freak injury. I felt bad but I couldn't stop watching this. The odds of this are 1 in a trillion and there's moving parts that all had to hit perfectly for it to occur. For one the school has to be stupid enough to allow the cheerleaders to do backflips in such a proximity to the players, the player being so zoned out he doesn't look up or around him, and the girl both timing the flip perfect and being the perfect size to nail him right in the smush. Just a freak accident of all freak accidents. And to make it worse the reports are this kid missed the playoffs. Heartbreaking. 

PS- You know the coach and parents absolutely went bonkers on the cheerleader and or the cheerleader. The coach I get she likely told them to get rowdy in the warmups with a few backflips (maybe) but the cheerleader herself you have to feel bad for ...how the hell was she supposed to know she could have the worst luck on the planet and that the kid would have been there. Awful luck. Pray this team wins State and laughs it off, anything different is a nightmare.
