It's almost World Cup time, and you know what that means. Sportsmanship, unity, and a Latin American country instituting some barbarous rule on their team.
According to The Miami Herald (link below), Mexico's National Team is nicely filling out that crucial third item on the list of things that happen every four years. Their coach, Miguel Herrera, banned beef and sex for his players for the duration of the tournament, saying,
“If a player can't go one month or 20 days without having sexual relations, then they are not prepared to be a professional player,” he said. “So then we will not be looking for sex or having sex at the World Cup just to have it. We are going to go after what we came for, a competition that gives us the opportunity to rise above and do something really great.”
All of this is true, but are these guys allowed to get their dicks wet if they go out in the Knockout Round again this year?
It's the beef thing that really baffles me though. According to the Herald "The beef ban is to prevent players from testing positive for the performance-enhancing drug clenbuterol, which was found in meat processed in Mexico."
See that makes sense. The sex thing though...
