    Ye gods.
    A Kazakhstani soccer team got a warning from UEFA after it sacrificed a sheep on the pitch before a recent Champions League match.
    Ritualistic pregame animal slaughter? Even Philly fans never went that far.

    On the home page, this was listed as "Sheep sacrifice? That's ..." and I was 99 percent sure that sentence would end with "baaaaaaad."

    Thank you for not doing it.

    They should've had Borat there to sing the national anthem.

    This guy would be the first to tell you that animal sacrifices can't help you hit a curveball, nor can they help you with your corner kicks.
