Germany just lost to Spain in the semifinals of the World Cup. They’ve been the team to beat all tournament, systematically and methodically destroying defenses one by one. But that makes no difference now. They’re playing for third place. But this post isn’t really about soccer. It’s about the German National Team’s manager, Joachim Löw, and his behavior on international television. Just watch this:
Wow. There’s just no explaining this one away. That’s definitely not a scratch. Definitely not a delicate, necessary pick. This is a full-on, digging-for-gold, rolling-booger-in-fingers, not-his-first-time-at-the-rodeo BOOGER PICK AND EAT. With all the cards given out by referees this tournament, I don’t see why this wasn’t a red-card offense. Do you think he honestly, truly didn’t realize what he was doing, all caught up in the moment of being on the world stage and coaching the team to beat? Or does he just not give a fuck because he’s on a world stage and is coaching the team to beat?
Either way, Löw is in serious need of some hometraining. I bet he doesn’t wash his hands after he pees and he probably needs to cut his toenails. It’s enough to make me root for the Dutch.
Duuuuuuude.
I almost didn’t watch it because I knew it’d be gross and I’m really sorry now that I was correct and that I watched it.
Seriously.
We picked the Netherlands, not to eat, but to win.
