Why Would Anybody Ever Do This?

Wednesday’s Scottish Premiership match between second-place Aberdeen and third-place Rangers quickly descended into stereotypes about Scottish football after Aberdeen’s Greg Tansey just clattered Rangers midfielder Jason Holt in the box.

Tansey unloaded his flailing, spinning whiff with only seven minutes gone and was then shamefully (or mercifully) hooked in the 43rd minute. With the mighty Bhoys of Celtic dropping points against Motherwell, this could’ve been an excellent opportunity for Aberdeen to put some pressure on the pacesetters. Instead, this happened.

Rangers capitalized on the penalty and strolled to a 3-0 victory at the Ibrox. As you might’ve expected, social media wasn’t kind to Tansey during or after the match.  

It’s not the first little adventure Tansey has gone on this season when it comes to tackling.

Like Steve Zahn and Paul Walker, Tansey is off on a horrific joy ride.
