What Could You Buy For The Price Everton Paid For Richarlison?

If you’ve been keeping up with the latest transfer news, you will have heard of the Richarlison Everton deal, Watford’s Brazilian forward moving in a deal worth upwards of $65 million. That’s a lot of money for a guy who has spent one season in the Premier League, is only 21 and scored a measly five goals.

The Beautiful Meaty French Forehead Of Olivier Giroud Is About To Get Meatier

Admirers of beauty around the world felt a strong disturbance in the force on Saturday. The mere thought on an Olivier Giroud shaved head will do that. 

Some folks are blessed with gorgeous faces, chiseled chins and beautiful hair. Others, like myself, would love to have just one of those traits. Giroud firmly falls into the former category, the Frenchman looking more like a model than a footballer. 

This Blooper-Infested Polish League Hype Video Will Get You Pumped For MLS

The top Polish league Ekstraklasa began play this week. 

WAIT! Come back!

Before you leave in boredom, let me remind you, the Polish league isn’t actually the worst league in the world. Well, OK, it’s one of the worst in Europe, not even cracking the top 20, but the Ekstraklasa is good for something.

Trevor Noah Gets Real In Response To Criticism For Saying Africa Won The World Cup
