OT: Insane soccer story out of Brazil
Rural Brazil, God Damn. Ref ejects soccer player, player tackles ref, ref stabs and kills player, player's family dismembers, beheads, and puts ref's head on a spike. WTF.
*Pictures and videos available on Buzzfead and Liveleak. But yeah, didn't feel confortable posting here.
Thank god we don't take soccer as seriously here....
for that matter
Uhmmm would it be bad to say the thought may have crossed my mind a few times? I mean just as an example you've got that damn scorekeeper in EL...
I'm left shaking my head with this one. Kind of like when people die at Wal-Mart holiday sales.
This is why I watch football from home most of the time, SPARTAN BOB!
imagine Bolivia !
These were the weapons confiscated by the police before a Copa Italia match ealier this year.
Going to a European soccer match is a bucket list type of thing for me. I guess I better be wise about which league I want to watch.
Or just make sure it's the last thing on your list.
sounds like it has better be the LAST thing on your bucket list
Not quite fast enough, but I love where your head's at.
As opposed to where the ref's head is at.
Does laughing at this mean I'm a bad person?
I often wonder
Well, if it's any consolation, I'm going straight to hell with you.
Did he actually fear for his life refereeing this game? Time for a new occupation, oops he was killed time for a Funeral, er wait his head is on a pike and his arms and legs are sawed off....WTF?
I'm curious; are you a 6 year old or are you piss drunk at 4PM on a Wednesday?
Lemme know.
I'm curious as to why you think the two are mutually exclusive...
We probably hung out in kindergarten.
Genuine "well played" for that one.
Should be a colon. -1
Why are you talking about anatomy? I didn't come here to play school.
Some of these amateur soccer teams have some street gang affiliations and those games can get contentious when you are dealing with cross town rivals.
Not sure about this incident because the article said it happened in a town not known for crime.
I just want to hear the excuse of the guy who brought the sickle and the pike to a friendly neighborhood futbol match.
"Honestly, officer... no premeditation here..."
All of this over a game where you are not even allowed to use your hands.
Anddd this is where next years World Cup is being held? wow
And the Olympics.
I doubt that FIFA or Olypic refs carry knives...That said, I don't mean to start another one of our hotly contested knife-control debates.
It's always interesting how people say that horrible things don't happen in their town and that the perps were from a different town. Reminds me of every Dateline murder episode with all the elderly shocked that "something like this could happen in our town." Well apparently it does and it did.....
Are we really shocked this happened though? Look at the level of violence at soccer matches. 60 minutes did a great piece on this a while ago.
It isn't too much of a shock that there was violence at a soccer match, but this level of violence is pretty crazy. Most times it is beatings and some people may die in the riots, but this is just ridiculous. Roping a guys arms and legs, cutting off his arms, legs and head and then sticking his head on a spike at the center of the pitch? That's insane. Not to mention that it all started because a player pushed the ref down, who then got up and stabbed the player.
This is the craziest soccer related story about violence I have seen, and there have been plenty to choose from.
Not Game of Thrones.
Souza’s brother Francisco then used a sickle to cutting off Silva’s arms, legs and head, which he placed on a spike in the middle of the field, Costa said. He added that Francisco may have been on drugs at the time.
Let's just hope.
The drugs part doesn't concern me as much as the fact the he was carrying around a sickle at a soccer game. Unless he was the team's mascot and their nickname was the "Grim Reapers" or the "Old School Farmers," I think the whole bringing sharp farm implements to an event where passions run high is probably where things took a turn south here.
You never know when you might need it.
As this was from a team south of us I find it best to not judge an entire state by fan behavior.
See, you said "insane" soccer story, and I didn't think you meant it literally. Now I know..
in the opening post.
But once I read the part about dismemberment, I just had to post this:
Arrrrrrrr....
I wonder what Urban Meyer's role in all this was.
Wait, it sounds like a lot of them were stabby. He probably recruited all of them.
of the world's soccer fans are semi-civilized sociopaths who are just itching for the slightest reason to engage in bloody idiot savagery over which team is better at kicking a ball around. Religious wars make more sense to me.
of black people are semi-civilized sociopaths who are just itching for the slightest reason to engage in bloody idiot savagery.
Boy, does that make me sound like a racist asshole, doesn't it?
What an asshole you must be, this is 2013 buddy, fuck you, you racist ignorant man...
That sucks
I think you missed the underlying message, thats not even a joking matter. He could have easily proved his point without involving race. #evolveasshole
Ok kid, nothing that was said is offensive to anyone other than you. I can tell you this though, you come off like a douche. Just you personally this is not a generalization so it's all good.
Boy, Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Dave Chapelle and a lot of others are going to be shocked to learn this.
obvious, I just dont get his audacity. Failing at recogniZing and speaking out against discrete racism, thats sucks. Shame on you sir...
Ban this asshole...
You completely missed the context of my message. I do not feel that way at all.
It seems to me that was more rhetoric than how he really feels. I think he was simply saying that sweeping generalizations about a group of people is wrong. Or he's really racist.
