Football is rarely the glam and glory it appears to be from the stands or on TV. Sometimes - most times - football is messy. When you freeze the action at 1/1000 of a second, you get the real picture of what the game is made of: dog piles, human knots, wrestling, group hug sessions, Fight Club, 300 lbs flying around, bruises forming, the Heimlich, and sometimes on accident, illusions like little guys pushing giants by the gluteus maximus. Chaos, savagery, and testosterone overload.
