Just had to lock the car up and swerve to miss a dam female with the phone glued to her head and now my bakes go to the floor with medium resistance. No sign of fluid leaking anywhere. Is it possible I blew up the master cylinder. Please help need this car tomorrow morning if not give me a call (330)-240-8041

If there is no fluid anywhere on the ground, I would look at the master cylinder next.

It is very possible that you blew a piston seal on the master cylinder. Bummer dude, but at least it gave its life protecting yours... there is something to be said for that!

Ok this makes no sense when we pushed on the brake with the car off we herd a very slight his comming out of the abs area and I couldent figure where. Well my brother recommend to check the fluid we pulled the cap off and there was a slight pop noise after removing it. Fluid checked out ok put the cap back on started the car and drove it with no problem and brakes work fine. Does this make any sense?

Nope, unless the ABS controller started deciding to bypass fluid or something. That is odd.
