While the world continues to begrudge the great Zinedine Zidane for ramming an Italian futball player in the chest with his head during the World Cup Championship game, I want to go in an opposite direction and say thank you to Zidane for doing exactly what every non-italian would've liked to have done.For those who didn't follow the World Cup, Team Italia will best be remembered for its constant flopping (read: cheating), its shifty characters, and its overall ugly style of soccer. They may have won the World Cup, but I ask you, brothers and sisters, at what cost did it come?
Sensing a grave injustice was lurking in the near future, Zinedine did what any sensible man or woman would have done: he used his head as a battering ram and knocked an Italian to the ground. And I, for one, am grateful for the sacrifice Mr. Zidane made. In the blink of an eye, he single-handedly restored decency to our world, if only for a short time. So thank you, Zinedine Zidane. I will name my first born after you.
And a final word to Italy: you're sinking under water.
