One would think Donald Trump has comfortably used up his stupidity quota for 2015. Just look at these two incidents alone: Wanting to deport anyone who's ever eaten a burrito, and using a stump speech to publicly poke fun at a person's disability.
Super heavyweight kick boxer Badr Hari is no one to f*** with, unless you are Cristiano Ronaldo. Hari and Ronaldo have known each other for quite some time now if this photo on Hari’s Instagram from 50 weeks ago is anything to go by. A friendship has apparently blossomed in the intervening time. Hari’s Instagram has many pictures of him being Cristiano Ronaldo’s friend: hanging out, eating, and doing bro things.
The European lower leagues are full of drunken lunatics, a phenomenon that was on display recently in an incident between a fan who ran on the field and an assistant referee who happened to be a woman. We'll just come out and say it: a fan in Spain ran onto the pitch during a game between CD Abes and Gabia CF and attempted to slap a female assistant referee with his penis.
Aspiring referees, pay close attention. Valenciennes’ Saliou Ciss committed nearly every single bookable offense in the space of one minute. Some of his misdemeanors, including flipping the stretcher that was sent to his aid, aren't even recognized in the rule book.
After being sent off for collecting a second yellow card against Brest in a French Ligue 2 match, Ciss absolutely lost it. Ciss isn't slowing down, or stopping, for anyone (teammates included).
These two guys make up the worst medics ever. They shouldn't even qualify as medics. They clearly don’t get it. They don’t even want to get it by the looks of it. They are medical help at a Greek second division game between Ergotelis and AE Larissa, and they — I mean come on, just look at them, they can’t even carry a stretcher.
Robin van Persie used to be good at soccer. No really, he did. That, however, seems like a long time ago, especially after the events of this past weekend. It seems he has scored what looks at first glance to be an intentional own goal, but in reality, he’s just a pitiful fool. Not sure if that’s any better.
News of a Sepp Blatter suspension broke today as the FIFA Ethics committee recommended that the current president of FIFA be suspended for 90 days.
All of you remember Lionel Messi’s goal against Bayern Munich in last year’s Champions League semifinals. It was an absolute destruction of one of the world’s best teams, and arguably the greatest goal Messi ever scored. You might be surprised to find out that Ronaldo had a similar goal. It was the best Ronaldo goal ever scored, or it would have been, had it counted.
If you have ever seen someone in the middle of a crisis, Jose Mourinho’s post-game interview after his Chelsea side lost 3-1 to Southampton will at be once inspirational, unbelievable, and familiar.
Chelsea were the 14/15 Premier League Champions. Now they are sitting just four places above dead last. His team has no identity; it is in full crisis mode, and so is Jose Mourinho. Losing to Southampton made that crisis unignorable, and forced Jose Mourinho to finally address it after the game.
Sergio Aguero is a frustrating striker for Manchester City fans. He’s ridiculously good when he’s on form, but he just isn’t on form all that often. Injuries have often been to blame, but that doesn’t make him any less inconsistent.
