An amateur soccer match turned outright barbaric, leading to the deaths of a match referee and player in northeastern Brazil.
According to multiple reports from Maranhão, match referee Octavio da Silva Catanhede Jordan allegedly stabbed Josenir dos Santos Abreu to death after an argument with the player during a game on June 30.
The 20-year-old referee reportedly had a knife with him at the match and attacked Santos Abreu. The 31-year-old footballer was pronounced dead on arrival by a local hospital.

Kicking a piece of inflated rubber across clipped grass has a monstrous affect on some people.

Didn’t the Aztec do this when playing ball. I remember as a child being at Mexico and we went to the pyramids. I recall a longated arena with hoops on the wall. I believe the loser winds up as...still loser because I think they lose their Heads or Heart.

Oddly, a former pro soccer team in Los Angeles during the 1970s, was named the Aztecs.

They should get dentists to come volunteer and do free work on the fans to lighten things up a bit. Best laugh all week. Thanks!

“Isnt hockey just soccer on ice skates?”
Perhaps that was tongue-in-cheek, but hockey is essentially lacrosse on skates.

Isnt hockey just soccer on ice skates?Similar, but a whole lot faster, a whole lot rougher, a whole lot more scoring, a whole lot more exciting and a whole lot better than watching the grass grow.

have you ever heard of an NFL ref or player being decapitated or butchered by angry fans or each other? You know who Aaron Hernandez is?

I disagree. You’re dealing with bad people either way. The NFL is certainly not immune to the criminal element.
