Of Ruptured Spleens

Several moons ago, I bitched about WWE giving Cena a ruptured spleen instead of a more sensible injury at one point. Well now I have data to confirm my suspicion that it would be a pain and a half to rupture it.
"Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Chris Simms ruptured his spleen in a game against the Carolina Panthers in 2006 and had an emergency procedure to have it removed. He missed the rest of the season and returned in 2007, but was inactive for the first five games before being placed on injured reserve."
