"Ronnie Lott, safety extraordinaire, once dislocated his ring finger's third knuckle and ruptured half the flesh off on an opponents helmet while making a tackle. he did not want to be taken out of the game so in the defensive huddle he literally gnawed and bit the end of his ring finger off, spit it out on the field, and continued playing the rest of the game. never told his coaches or his trainers.
This is not something I would be proud of doing for the sake of some GAME.
I would call him a total macho moron, but you are correct: "sissy" is a word I would not use.
Dude is definitely tough. And dumb.
