ah! My masculinity!

I think we all agree that it’s very difficult to be a catcher in Major League Baseball.

That’s because it’s a reality given the kind of pain players feel in that position, especially when a foul ball is hit back by the catcher and bounces so quickly that he doesn’t have time to react.

Just ask the Minnesota Twins catcher Christian Vasquezreceived a ball in the groin during Wednesday’s game against the Milwaukee Brewers. And it hurt. (And we men all know what it’s like)

Luckily, he shrugged it off and stayed in the game.

oh!If you’re curious, the Twins won 4-2.

No… I’ve been there before.

If you’re a woman reading this, the pain can be difficult to describe, but it can leave you completely out of breath and curled up on the ground for 15-20 minutes.

Interesting story. I was in junior high school at the time, and it was my first year playing soccer. It was my first season, so I hadn’t adapted to all the equipment yet. Well, one day during practice, I forgot to put down the cup. I completely forgot and didn’t even think about it during training.

Well, we had time to play a game of scrimmage against each other to wrap up practice, and I played both offensively and defensively on the ball. At this point, I was on the defensive line, and one of my teammates on the offensive line pounced on me while I was playing for the quarterback, and their helmet ended up hitting my crown jewel. (Related: Yankees’ Oswaldo Cabrera is seen wearing his grandmother’s teeth in a necklace, that’s a pretty cool piece of Hebey Geebies)

I had to go to the sidelines to catch my breath and get my stomach ready before coming back.

Believe me, I tried to endure it, but such discomfort is hard to challenge.

Holy cow, it was tough. And this is exactly why you wear cups all the time.
