there is three things that could have part of the stick may be jamed in the mower still, you may have bent the blade, or you may have bent the shaft the blade mounts to
Good thoughts but this is definitely it...
You sheared the shear pin and now the timing is off. The flywheel on top has a little slot in it where it connects to the motor shaft, to line it up for the timing of the engine.
There is a key way, most of the time it is aluminum. This is done on purpose so that if you run over something that stops the engine, it will shear the pin and stop the motor instead of damaging the actual engine.
The pin only costs a couple of dollars, but you need to remove the crank and get a puller to pull the flywheel off to replace the cheap little key way.
Go to a home repair center or a lawn mower repair center and get a package of key ways for your engine for starters. There are only a few types, depending on if your engine is Briggs and Stratton, or Tecumseh.

Which has more force a blunt stick or a pointed stick?
If the stick is just sitting there, it doesn't exert any force at all. If you're swinging the stick, the shape of the stick won't matter much; the force will be determined by the speed and mass of the stick. If you are poking with the stick, then the FORCE will be the same whether it is blunt or pointed - but a pointed stick will concentrate the force into a smaller AREA, so the force per area will be a lot higher with a sharp stick than with a blunt one.
