Sex Scandal, According To Taiwanese Animation (Video)

Yesterday we received news of a developing sex scandal that has taken the Aussie Rules Football League by storm.

However, at the time we didn’t necessarily feel the need to make any mention of it on our website.

After all, it seemed like just another one of your typical sex scandals that we have heard about over and over throughout the past year.

A 17-year-old high school student by the name of Kim Duthie is claiming to have had sex with several AFL players, including members of the St. Kilda club, whom she claims impregnated her during one of their encounters (the child was stillborn).

As for the players involved in the scandal, they were not punished because the sex was deemed consensual and Duthie lied about her age.

Displeased with the way she was treated during the entire investigation, Duthie has now taken her fight to facebook, where she released two nude photos of the St. Kilda players and claims to have 19-21 more, including images involving the use of drugs.

Seems like some pretty wild stuff. However, we tend to refrain from posting images of naked males on our website, leaving us with little reason to even talk about it, until now.

Thanks to this animated recreation of the entire incident, we have no choice but to now consider this story post-worthy.

Snow Didn’t Stop Sonck From Scoring This Incredible Goal (Video)

I have always wondered why these European soccer leagues have decided to stage their regular seasons throughout the course of the cold winter months.

However, as a fan I always enjoy the sight of a snow covered pitch and the appearance of the classic orange ball.

And such a sight is even more incredible when it is accompanied by a spectacular goal, like the one scored by Lierse’s Wesley Sonck during their Belgian Pro League game against Racing Genk.

Tis the season of giving and Sonck’s bicycle kick goal was enough to give his team a single point following a 1-1 draw in this tough match against the league’s top team.

Swing and a Miss For Twente’s Keeper (Video)

The UEFA Champions League is usually reserved for the best that European soccer has to offer, so you likely wouldn’t expect to see a goalkeeper line up to kick a slow-rolling ball, only to have it hop over his foot and into the net.

FC Twente keeper Sander Boschker was the victim of such a disastrous moment yesterday during a UCL match against Tottenham.

Thankfully for him, the match was rather meaningless as Tottenham and Inter had already secured their spots in the knockout round, while Twente will have to watch from the comfort of their own homes. However, they did manage to score an equalizer moments later, earning the tie in front of their home crowd.

Watching this clip took me back to my elementary school days of playing soccer-baseball, as I used to wonder how it was humanly possible to strike out. After all, how hard can it be to kick a soccer ball that is rolling directly at you no faster than three miles per hour? I guess for some, the answer to that question is “pretty damn hard.”

Matias Concha’s Leg Snapped Like A Twig (Video)

Second Division German Soccer League highlights typically don’t make the headlines unless they involve images of a leg being snapped in half, much like Matias Concha’s did last night during a match against Union Berlin.

In a race to chase down a loose ball, the Bochum defender slid while his counterpart, Berlin’s Macchambes Younga-Mouhani, opted to stomp his way into the challenge, taking out Concha’s leg along the way. It was a gruesome incident that left the Swede with fractures to his tibia and fibula, which will keep him out for the remainder of the season.

As for Younga-Mouhani, he was not booked for the foul and in typical soccer player fashion, hit the ground as if he were the one with the leg that had just been snapped in half.

Proof That Amateur Locker Room Boxing Is Amazing, Or Terrible, Depending On Who You Are (Video)

Amateur locker room boxing; where two combatants enter the ring, but only one leaves without suffering a nasty knockout and a subsequent case of brain damage.

This fight was no different, but those in attendance don’t appear to be even the slightest bit worried that there is a man laying unconscious on the floor after taking a devastating right hook to the chin.

Why help him out when you can just stand over him and snap some pictures?

The Most Violent Soccer Goal Celebration Ever? (Video)

Soccer goal celebrations are supposed to be a time when teammates can get together and bask in the glory of their accomplishment by either exchanging some friendly taps and shakes, or by putting together some choreographed moves for the fans.

But in Italy, it appears as though they have their own way of doing things.

Forget about the giant love-fest that typically ensues following a goal in soccer. Bari’s Francesco Caputo just wants to let out some rage. And he did just that following the equalizing goal against Cesena on Sunday by punching Emmanuel Rivas (who had just finished setting him up for the goal) directly in the face.

And as you would expect, Rivas refused to pass Caputo the ball for the remainder of the game.
