Soccer News of the Week
• WTF, Rangers?
Storied Scottish club Rangers FC will be playing next season in the bottom-tier division. Circumstances arising from the club’s massive financial crisis left the team without registration for the upcoming season, and Rangers were forced to reapply for entrance into the Scottish Football League. Despite finishing second in 2011-12 – and having won the championship a record 54 times – Rangers will have to start from the beginning. Like all new teams.
Just a stab in the dark here, but something tells me these games are going to be amazing to watch this year, real thrillers. Nothing like 8-0 slaughters to get a soccer fan’s heart a-racin. I’m kidding. This situation is ridiculous.
• John Terry and racial slurs. It’s cool, bro.
A UK court found Chelsea defender John Terry not guilty of criminal racial abuse. He and QPR’s Anton Ferdinand traded barbs during an intense Premier League match last fall. Part of the friendly banter from Terry included “sarcastically” calling Ferdinand a f***ing black c**t.
While public consensus still finds Terry guilty of being a total prick, let’s be honest – it’ll be a sad day for justice when being an a-hole is considered a crime. What do you think? Should the FA hand down its own punishment?
