Headbutt heard around the world
July 12, 2006
I am not a big soccer, er futbol fan although I did catch some of the world cup action and it was pretty good. It would have been nice to see the US team advance farther, but eh, that’s the way it goes. I did see the infamous headbutt by France’s Zinedine Zidane’s on Italy’s Marco Materazzi. Here is my view on the situation, one dude that headbutts someone and gets a red card should not be named World Cup best player, no matter what was said to him. There has to be other players that contributed just as much with out physically assaulting another player. Two, its pathetic that they are getting lip readers to try to figure out what the guy said. Does it really matter? What ever happens to sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me? Is it that bad that if Materazzi said something so bad that he should be penalized for it? This reminds me of the clip below with Kevin Stevens and Brian Trottier of the Pittsburgh Penguins giving some lip speak to Brian Bellows of the Minnesota North Stars.
