Hero Dad Holds Up Son Instead Of Scarf At Celtic Game

Celtic fans with scarves have been in the news a lot lately, but we're here to talk about a Celtic fan waving something that isn't a scarf and definitely doesn't have anything to do with certain idealistic conflicts in the Middle East.

In Football, Managers Are Overrated And Optional

The 2016-17 Premier League is the “Year of the Manager.” Some of the world’s most famous, eccentric and respected managers have come to England in search of glory. Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho, Antonio Conte, Jurgen Klopp and Arsene Wenger are all elite level managers who have won major trophies throughout Europe. Through tactics, man-management and mind games only one deserving manager will lift the Premier League trophy in May.

This message, we should note, is not directed at any single flopper, though some of you out there in soccerland might want to pay more attention than others (cough, Luis Suarez and Arjen Robben, cough).

You don't look cool when you flop. You look the opposite of cool, like a small child throwing a tantrum in a grocery store.
