Soccer is serious business.
I guess the Quran has no sharia laws against being a soccer hooligan. Good for them, maybe they are not as backwards as we like to think.

I've been plenty caught up in sports rivalries, and I've been plenty disgusted by my home team, but never to the point of thinking to myself "You know what would be a good idea? Throwing a grenade out on to the field. Yeah."

That was no hand grenade I saw the video those guys are too close a hand grenade would have killed or injured at that range.
That thing would have maybe taken a few fingers off at most.It was most likely a home made noise maker using a little gun powder and they wrapped it in paper and saw dust.Saw dust is used with fireworks to cause a flame.Who ever made it did plan for it be that powerful or they are very bad at making explosives and it was supposed to be more effective.Maybe they where testing a new device to use against Iranian nuclear engineers. I have no idea how I might know these things. Last edited by Stealhead; 09-22-12 at 06:46 PM. |
