Fans Riot At A Mexican Soccer Match Today

[John Kelly]

At least 22 injured, two are in critical condition.

Estradio Corregidora was the site.

The game between Atlas and Queretaro was suspended in the 67th minute.

And you thought "The Malice at the Palace" was barbaric?

Second only to the Rail/Old man election day rumble, although only egos were injured.

The Election Day Rumble, haha.

For a math guy, ComptrBob has a wonderful way with words.

mexicans are crazy when it comes to football.

i heard a stat once, 50 pct of world homicides are committed by 8 pct of world population, male hispanics 18-55

 

[winkyduck]

Knowing the vile, sick, repulsive chant Mexican fans do at games involving countries outside of Mexico, the only tragic thing about this is not everyone there was killed.

Of all of the people on the planet to be insulting others, Mexican fans should rank damn near the bottom on the list. They (rightfully so) get offended when someone insults them but they have no trouble insulting others.

FUCK THEM!

 

[howid]

betting soccer matches over the globe, it is rare a week goes by without a bet somewhere being refunded, reason: match abandoned.

fans rushing the pitch, crowd fights spilling onto the field, rockets being fired, referee assault, endless list ...

somebody summed up sports:

rugby is a game for boors played by gentlemen.
soccer is a game for gentlemen played by boors.
american football is a game for boors played by boors.

I was BIRDIE's source for this piece of information.

He twisted up the numbers, no surprise.

As I told it to him, eight percent of the world's population lives in Latin America and Latin Americans account for 32% of the world's murders.

The drug trade is the leading reason for all the homicides.

Here in Costa Rica, it is evident that most of the young male population lives only for today.

Very little thought put into one's future.

And Costa Rica is the most advanced Central American country.

Places like Honduras and El Salvador must be danger zones.

You can blame South America for most deaths…When I was living in Costa Rica I always thought of Panama as a great place to visit…now being in Thailand for the past 15 years, I feel more comfortable here..in the Latin American countries I was always looking over my shoulder…
