ripped out eye
How could someone pull out an entire eye out of the socket?
shareThe eye wasn't pulled out it was from a tackle. If you're hit hard enough or you land in a certain way then things can go pop, could be ear drums or eye balls.
Think it should get on to Myth Busters though for proper scientific testing :D
Ow about that hockey guy who got his throat cut by the hockey stick. He lived.
shareThe ripped oput eye was dumb and over the top. And I liked the movie. Go figure.

The problem with the eye scene is that there's already a laundry list of gruesome football injuries that actually happened to choose from, so why invent one? It's pointless dramatization for the sake of dramatization to create a new injury that's never been documented as happening in a football game when any number of real injuries could've conveyed the same message.
The whole scene came off as cartoonish.
Maybe this scene was meant to be symbolic. Like, sometimes you have to lose an eye in order to see clearly. Look at the helmets of one of the teams. They feature the one-eyed pyramid illuminati symbol and the camera focuses on it several times. The symbol is shown again in flashes right after the eye was ripped out.
Here is the scene on YouTube:

Watching it again now it's quite obvious and in-the-face, lol. But I stil think that it was both out of place and over the top.
