I love soccer, but some people take it way too seriously.

You love a game where a player pulls a gun and shoots the referee? Wow.
You’ve obviously never seen the aftermath of an Auburn/Alabama football game.
yeah, it’s the murder I love.
Get a load of this:

That’s also in Argentina, on opening day.
Rosario? It’s the hometown of both Che Guevara & Lionel Messi. Go figure.
Wow …maybe there is something here the GOP could use to ratchet up their next debate!
If the ref needs a bullet-proof vest and a helmet, probably not worth the 50 bucks salary (if that, in Argentina). NRA solution: the line judges should be issued riot guns?
This to me is just more evidence as to why people should not own guns. Had a gun not been at hand, that player would have cooled off and realized he was thinking like a lunatic. Now one man’s dead and another will spend his life behind bars. So horribly wasteful and tragic and unnecessary.
Baseball is reall then only thing to get worked up over.
other people taking soccer seriously include the FBI and IRS…
