Rant over

I don't get to watch much decent telly here. You can get bored of Cops killing kids, earthquakes, men having 3 wifes and 25 children, political shenanigans and American Football heroes arranging dog fighting in their back garden - and that's just the news. You Tube is the new must-see television. On there I can see all kinds of stuff, and I find myself watching it over and over again, just like Dida's very embarrassing moment last week at Parkhead.

Now of course the Sweaty should never of got on the pitch and in my experience would have endeared himself better to cops, fans and players alike, if he just ran around ball-nake. However he will regret stroking Milan's keeper Dida's cheek at the same time as a trained sniper took a pot-shot at the Brazilian from a nearby tenament building because the bloke, 27-year-old Robert McHendry, has now got himself banned for life from footie and a place in You Tube annals of history.

McHendry of course was embarrassed by his actions, but how does Dida feel? What an absolute prized plonker eh? The Brazilian recovered from gun shot wounds, a fractured cheekbone and a bruised ego in time to play for Milan on Sunday, and it should be noted made it through the whole game without breaking a nail, but after what he did last week FIFA should throw the book at him. Talk about taking play-acting to a new level. Throw the book at him, and let's see if that hurts more than a stroke across the face.
