I have a half hour before the kickoff between Argentina and Nigeria at 1pm.
The title, of course, refers to Suarez’ bite of the Italian. I don’t follow European football and I was unaware that this is not the first time, nor the second time that he has committed this despicable act, but the THIRD! Leaving me even more shocked. The first offence he was banned for six games, the second, ten games. This time she should be banned from the sport for LIFE!
I saw the footage during the game, the video leaves no doubt that he did it regardless of his claims that he was ‘shouldered’ by the Italian is bullshit; it was nothing of the sort. And history tells us that he did indeed bite him, as he has committed an impressively nefarious list of infractions including unsportsmanship, handing the ball, racial abuse, as well as the two previous bites; all of which have lead to sanctions.
We don’t need animals like this in sport!
FIFA is investigating…. there’s NOTHING to investigate!
The biter bit title comes from a high school English class. I can’t remember the context, I believe something to do with poetry, but it was so appropriate.
Today is a holiday here in Rio because of the game at Maracanã, I had a morning planned.
Make fresh coffee
Bacon & Eggs for breakfast
Bog and shower
Replace the shelf under the kitchen sink
So far, I have made the coffee and had a bog…
You can see that I have taken the route of least resistance, although the bog… No, I’ll spare you the details.
The shelf under the kitchen sink remains, disintegrating, under the sink.
Bacon & Eggs are now planned for lunch along with a weinerschnitzel steak.
My PC was sluggish, it was taking forever for anything to happen, although in reality the time could’ve been measured in seconds. When you’re at the keyboard, that’s an eternity.
Even FireFox was having hiccoughs.
Not surprising, it’s been on 24/7 for the last 12 days.
So, I shut everything down, and rebooted.
I searched for a reboot funny/humour image without success, and apparently there is nothing funny about having to reboot your PC.
The US has upset Kim Jong-un. He’s threatening war over a movie portrayal of him. Geez, he’s a dork!
Nice day out there, already passed kick off, and Messi has already scored.
I’m off to cook breakfast lunch.
Later.
Totally agree that this is unacceptable in sport! I too was amazed that this was his THIRD offence – he has to go…

>Expat, unfortunately Uruguay don’t see that, they just see a great footballer. If he is banned, and rightly so, the next Uruguay match in the World Cup will be their last, they’ll be on the bus home. He’s the only footballer they’ve got.

Deja vu all over again. 1966. Alf Ramsey is censured for calling the Argentines ‘animals’. Rattin was sent off by Rudi Kreitlein. It must be a South American thing. Muzzle the bastards. That’s the only answer.

>Andrew, in 1966 I was still a spotty horny teenager, football was the last thing on my mind, so I don’t remember Alf. The muzzle will feature in today’s post.
