The line of questioning toward Texas Longhorns cornerback Kris Boyd turned oddly physiological during the NFL Scouting Combine.

According to ESPN.com's Jeff Legwold, Boyd said one team asked him if he had two testicles. Boyd responded affirmatively and wondered why the query was useful.

The combine is annually an event when teams posit questions to incoming rookies that can vary between peculiar and downright offensive.

There are rules and regulations covering what is permissible at a job interview. I am surprised someone has not sued the NFL over these type of questions.

They were just worried that he didn’t have to balls to play at the NFL level.

It’s not a job interview. It’s more like a beauty contest to raise a player’s draft stock.

It’s not like they asked Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber.

That should be the first question asked of a candidate in a Republican primary. Sir, do you have any balls at all?

It might be a valid question. If I only had one, I would probably avoid contact sports. One could probably get along just fine with one.

I once dated a real cutie who told me she only had one ovary. It did not hurt her in any way. Pretty as could be and she later married and now has 5 children and a bunch of grandchildren.

(to the “Colonel Bogey March”)

Hitler has only got one ball
Göring has two but very small
Himmler is rather sim’lar
But poor old Goebbels has no balls at all

Sounds as if the NFL draft is turning into something more akin to a slave auction.

Slaves weren't paid millions of dollars a year, like NFL players are.

Could it have an impact on testosterone production and therefore potentially limit his physical abilities?

I’m guessing totally out of the blue here.

These type of questions are looking for the response from the prospect. The question themselves are meaningless.

It sounds like a routine medical question to me. I don’t read anything into it. I doubt they have his complete medical record per HIPPA

Opposing players will be asking/saying a lot worse than that. Man up sissy-boy!
