A Columbian goalie once punted the ball out of the box and it bounced over the Polish goalie into the net - A ridiculous goal!

I wonder if he was hailed a victor for that move...

What did they do?

the guy's name was andres escobar, if i remember correctly. he went to a bar and was shot 12 times by three people. he was the reason columbia lost against the u.s. 2-1, i think it was.... he accidentally deflected a crossed ball and the keeper never had a chance.
 
the fastest goal on record, i believe, is an australian goal.... at kick-off, they touched the ball off and player who received the touch shot it at the goal... the keeper couldn't run back in time to knock the ball away. it was a 4 second goal or something.... first 4 seconds of the match.

I guess it's like punching yourself in the face while drunk so the fatty you've been talking to looks good enough to slay.... but you do that on purpose.

That soccer player simply did that on accident.

What? How did he own the opposition? This is an own goal.

ROFL!

Oh man, I didn't even realize that. I am not a big soccer follower, plus I laughed too hard to catch that.

Anywho, I renig my comparison of what he did to what I said about the fatty at the bar by modifying it to say that in the end the fatty turns you down.

This is, yet again, another funny thread.

There are exceptions to every rule.

Exactly what happened to me.

New theory: Oldsmobat's Law has been the cause of such low occurances of threads in which Oldsmobat's Law was proven correct. People are actually caring about incorrectly posting unfunnay links.
