Messi Is Blonde Now And It's Freaking Us Out

Lionel Messi has unveiled a new hair color, and it made him look even more like he should be in a boy band.
July 24, 2016

Soccer players have a long and proud history of looking like they should be in boy bands, and the current best player in the world is carrying on the tradition like a champ. Look at what this dude Lionel Messi did to his hair.

That is one of the more boy-band-y looks we've seen in a while. Look for Messi, Neymar and Suarez's debut album sometime later this year.

And now for some cheap puns.

Barcelona's attack is sure to be more (clears throat) in sync this season. Surely they will be moving in (clears throat again) one direction and that will be toward the goal. They will be looking to keep (clears throat for an uncomfortably long period of time) new kids on the block Atletico Madrid at bay. 

The tension will be hot this season in La Liga. Like, (clears throat) 98 degrees hot.
