Fans

Hi, and welcome to Canada! We’re sooorry about what happened in your general election, but don’t say we didn’t warn you — what, with your love of s***-kickers and deking social responsibility. We gave the world Justin Bieber, sure, but you’ve responded in turn with your new president — I wouldn’t say that we’re even. Just admit that you made a massive mistake in leaving the monarchy, and we’ll leave it at that. 

Towards the end of West Ham’s win over London rival Chelsea, fans began hurling bottles and even seats at one another. The situation escalated when fans attempted to burst through the segregation line, requiring riot police to separate the parties. 

Watch as fans of both sides forget that they are there to watch a match:

Building off a record breaking 2015 season that saw an average attendance of 21,558, the 2016 MLS season managed to set another landmark by edging that total with an average attendance of 21,692 fans per game.

The growth of MLS is exemplified by this being the third consecutive season that the record has been broken. Leading the way for MLS is the Seattle Sounders (42,636 fans per game), Orlando City (31,324) and New York City FC (27,196).

No one can really be mad if a dog interrupts a soccer game. Especially if it’s a cute dog who looks like he is having the time of his life. 

This dog decided it was time for the two teams to take a breather so he distracted the audience by performing his own show. 

“Stop playing like a girl.”

Five words that can quickly bring down someone’s motivation and self-esteem. Over the years, this stereotype has been used as an insult for both boys and girls. It’s a simple way of telling someone they aren’t good enough. Over time, women have done their best to break this harmful stereotypes. Luckily, there are a growing number of celebrities and role models speaking out for gender equality today. 

We just want everyone to know that five-year-old Celtic fan Louis Kayes is a more dedicated fan than all of you put together.

Louis missed Saturday's game against Motherwell, which is not something you would normally associate with the most dedicated fan in the world, but Louis, because he is so dedicated, called Celtic to apologize for his absence. Specifically, he wanted manager Brendan Rodgers and captain Scott Brown to know he had missed the match because of a birthday party.
