I don't remember who said it, but someone dubbed soccer (futbol to those who hate our freedoms) as "communist kickball. There are a few interesting things about the social phenomenon though. Chief among them is the sanctioned violence that occurs between supporters of teams playing a maddeningly dull game. Fortunately, such European sophistication has given us some great video. The first one, a Dutch short film, is incredibly cool
Red v. Green
Welsh hooligans badly outnumbered by Russian hooligans.
Scottish hooligans (Dundee v. Hibernians)
Roma v. Milan
Arsenal/Leeds v. Galatasaray (Turkey). Much taunting of manhood, religion, nationality in this one kids.
Finally, this is about the funniest damned video I've seen all week...Ninja getting his ass kicked by a futbol hool. (embed disabled)
