Last summer soccer officially came out as gay, so it makes sense that some players now feel free to express their male affection on field, even if it involves putting another man’s junk in their mouths. Personally we were OK with guy athletes just hugging each other, slapping each other’s rumps, and running shirtless around the pitch, but we could get used to this new form of congratulation… just as long as it doesn’t involve teeth.

When I was at school I loathed Wednesday and Friday when we had “double games”.
Football/Soccer in the winter and Cricket in the summer.
Two of the class jocks would be selected to captain a team and would select alternatively each member of their team from the remainder of the class.
As the numbers diminished and was based on, not who would be best, but who would do least damage to their chances I could guarantee that me and another two class members were left until the end.
I would spend the entire “game” avoiding the ball and in the winter, avoiding the mud! In the summer I would move around a bit more…..just to ensure that firstly the ball was never in my vicinity, and secondly, to ensure my exposure to the sun was even….I didn’t want to end up with a farmer tan.
Now had this form of celebration been introduced into the games we played at Catholic school back in the 70′s I may have had more interest……who knows, given that kind of reward I could have ended up Captain for England’s World Cup Squad and Victoria Beckham would have been looking for another husband!

I have not problem with it. We do it at company meetings all the time. They used to do it at church until the nosy Protestants complained. How else can Priests celebrate the winner of musical chairs?
