Zidane's is a wee wee--no?

Question

C'mon, Zidane suffers "cruel insults" about his mother and sister so he throws the entire World Cup final and his career?? "Zidane, was it worth it--are you going to Disney World now? What a millionaire loser.

Hos can it be THAT easy to get under his skin???

Look, sure Zidane's "only human" but so what? He's a professional who makes more than 10 times what I do. If I cost our company our biggest contract because in the midst of trying to get it out the door we missed the deadline because I head-butted a co-worker who insulted my mother I'd be out of a job and rightly so. Why hold this great athlete to a lesser standard? Yeah, he was suckered--we all know that. And it will happen again and again. It comes with the game and he's paid to ignore these things.

Answer 1

your absolutely right....cmon like no ones ever been made fun of like that....thrash talk is part of the game and if cant stand the heat get out of the kitchen and thats exactly waht he did......finally somone that understands how i feel thanks man

Answer 2

Karl,
Zidane did admit that what he did cannot be forgiven and acknowledged his wrongdoing: it takes more than a loser to admit it in public.
How about you? I'm sure that the loser that you are lacks the courage to admit that only a bored and morally despicable loser who has nothing better to do or nothing intelligent to say would start such an offensive thread, instead of showing some understanding.
I'm sure that riff-raff like you would rather sympathize with a brutal like Materazzi - check his record.


sobekBOS,
It seems that you did not watch the game because
1- When it happened France had more chance to win because was controlling the game
2- From the video captions, it is obvious that Materazzi, who has a long track record of brutality, provoked Zidane.
Have you considered visiting your eye doctor...or maybe your shrink??? :)

Answer 3

I agree with sobekBOS. Players are all babies. Zidane did something unjustifiable because he was frustrated and tired. Also he is a bit of an hysterical star (see headbutt in the face to a German player in Juve-Bayer Leverkusen, see dangerous kick in WC1998 for which he got disqualified). So to justify his pathetic act and not lose publicity income he invents the provocation. All BS. "**** offs" and similar are said in thousands in football pitches and players laugh about this. ZIDANE PATHETIC. Only apologising fully he would have shown he was a man. But he is not as most players (even good ones like Maradona) he is an hysterical sissy.

Answer 4

I'm not interested in sports, so I can't recall nothing from memories, but I do know that this isn't the first time that things like this happen.

this Materazzi-Zidane mess is worldwide because it happened during the WC, but does anybody know of other players expelled, in any kind of sports?

lets try to make it clear that it happens, it seems to me that the 80% want Materazzi killed!! I see more racism here against Italians than anywhere else.

Are you all going crazy? Lets calm down...

Materazzi is wrong, so is Zidane, they are even!!

Answer 5

Now peole are beginning to see.... he wasnt that bothered. The French were losing, he was tired, his last attempt was stopped by the italian goalie. Zidane gave up without trying to look like he ws trying to win. But now it looks like its his fault the French lost.
Like Materazzi said, people insult each other all the time in every sport. Its just part of the game. Its just a terrific excuse...and now they are trying to pull a racist card. Complete BS. Nice tactic though.

Answer 6

Yes Karl- if you can't take a insult on the football field then how can you call yourself a proffessional football player, it's part of the game, same as Rooney with Ronaldo.Karl you are 100 percent right, very easy to get under his skin - he's a sucker HA HA HA .

Answer 7

just for the record... materazzi lost his mother at 15 and went on to say that although he insulted zidane, a mother is sacred and he would've never said anything about his mother. also... he didn't say something about his mother, his sister, his family dying, AND being a terrorist. it wasn't a speach.. it was one insult. everyone heard and read something different come from the same lips. the main thing is... italy won. FORZA AZZURI!

Answer 8

Zidane was wrong, but I bet he felt a lot of satisfaction watching the idiot that insulted his mum buckle over in pain. The guy has apologised: leave him alone! He's only human, afterall.

Answer 9

My mom died when I was 14, even before that if people made a joke about yo mama is this or your mama is that, I would get angry and I'd try and get even but with that said violence isn't the answer, it sucks that he ended his international career that way but I understand, I probably would have reacted that way too.....that fool deserved more than a headbutt, he deserved a drop kick as well. lol

Answer 10

This is the difference in a cool after thought response and hot on the spot reaction.Pl do not blame Zidane.His response was correct at that moment.

Answer 11

That morning he found out something tragic about his mother and Materazzi got under his skin very easily...don't tell me after finding something out that was bad about your mother...you wouldn't kick someones *** if they reminded you about it. (BTW Materazzi said he wished a painful death to his family and Zidane's mother was diagnosed with an illness)
