Zidane Is a Jerk

Because I don’t have a real job (I work part time for no pay because I’m what experts in the field call a “moron”), I payed quite a bit of attention to the World Cup. When I say quite a bit of attention, I mean I watched every bracket game save one or two and probably two games per day during group play. Remember, I don’t have legit employment.

One thing I truly began to appreciate in the games was the sportsmanship. Those corny banners about fair play apparently had an effect, because soccer was as classy a sport as I’ve ever seen. When a player is injured, for example, play isn’t halted, so if the opposing team has the ball, they kick it out of bounds to let the injured player recieve treatment.

So, when Zidane decided to headbut an Italian player in overtime of the World Cup final, in his last World Cup, it left a scar on the vibe that prevailed throughout the tournament. Rather than remembering a thrilling game that came down to PKs after Italy barely hung on to get there, we’ll remember a golden-shoed, balding baby that couldn’t curb his emotions for the sake of the game of soccer and his country. Way to go, ya big jerk.
