The Games People Play

Soccer is the world's most popular sport, is it not?

Hasn't British soccer star, David Beckham, just been given $200,000,000,000,000 to play for 4 minutes in South Los Angeles, or something?

O.K.

So FIFA (which I'm starting to think should be renamed "FeeFee") and its governing body, IFAB (which I thought was a modelling agency), have decided that Maria Monsour that 11 year old bandita, major criminal, and world's most wanted may NOT wear her Muslim scarf on her head if she wants to continue to kick a leather orb around a grass field in Montreal or anywhere else on this round earth.

No word yet, however, on what FIFI or IFAB or HOOCARES are going to do about human beings killing each other in mad crowd rampages at soccer games. After all, those "tragedies" are "regrettable" while clearly this hijab lunacy is something we can deal with right now.

So there.
