Player stabbed, referee dismembered over soccer quarrel in Brazil



Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?


From the story, it sounds like the ref was carrying a knife during the game.


I like soccer/football a lot, but crikey! :nope:


What a horrible loss to both families... over a game.

Wars have started over football...well, a war...

Nowhere near worth the killing of anyone but goes to show how crazy the Brazilians can get over a game of football/soccer :nope:

Should be an interesting time for all the fans visiting for the world soccer cup next year in Brazil.

Aha! Phonetic Alphabet. :woot:

I agree though. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot indeed. :03:

Just crazy. What kind of ref carries a knife during the game? :nope:

Terrible way to lose a family member.

In the Netherlands a referee has been killed by a mob of amateur players not long ago too. Seems that violence is getting more and more of a problem.:timeout:

Not like the Dutch to react with anger :hmm2:

:O:

I played DEFCON with HunterICX once.... :har:

The joke/laughing matter being? :hmm2:

So which goal keeper is England using for the World Cup? Is it the same one from the last one? The one that lost to the US:har:?
I think yousa guys should use that goalkeeper again, then we'll see some riots.:D:03:

Really...I thought you had a lucky drawer, then got knocked out of the competition first :har:

We had a goalkeeper? :o

DEFCON...the game about fighting nuclear war?

Hunter is Dutch IIRC... :hmmm:

He beat me pretty badly...

I nuked the crap out of him when he was trying to sneak his subs to the coastline of my continent

The Brazilians would dismember me if I told them my opinion of soccer :O:

And so would the English, Germans, Bosnians and Spanish
