His teammate might not have objected to the message on his undershirt, but the way he revealed it. FIFA rules (iirc) state that it’s ok to lift your shirt up to expose your torso, but never to remove your shirt or to lift it over your head or face.

Very true. But, counterpoint: I like the snugness of freshly-laundered jeans on my hips. So I wash them for that.

I second that.

Nothing wrong with a little turkey on the side tho.

That’s only because in the USA we siphon those fans off onto the NFL. We have just as many per-capita violent, clannish, homicidal maniacs as anyone, and I defy you to claim otherwise.
