a bit too far? Rolling Eyes

Soccer is a past time, blown up for it's commercial value, pays millions for 1 1/2 hour work a week, we're back to roman times, waiting for the wild animals to join the games. Confused

A soccer referee was beheaded and his head displayed atop a wooden stake at midfield

Yes. That is going too far.

Everyone knows that a decapitated head should be placed on top of one of the corner flags.
Not in the middle of the pitch where it could disrupt play.

Well, to be fair, he did stab a player to death. Did he think a stadium full of psychotic, enraged soccer fans wouldn't resort to mob justice?

Things like this make me think humans are just circling the drain society-wise.
