Haha, that does not justify a headbutt. Whatever.

Fantastic!

Materazzi is a hero. The only reason Zidane didn't say anything is because he was so embarrassed that he got so wound up over absolutely nothing.

Materazzi is my new hero.

I'm having a hard time believing that... surely he must've said something worse. But then again... maybe not. LOL.

No, it's believable. Zidane has always had a very short fuse. It strikes me as the sort of thing Materazzi would have said. Besides, he wouldn't go public if Zidane could just stand up and say "Errrr... that's not what you said."

Yeah, I see what you mean. The more I think about it, the more I can believe it. *rolls eyes*

Ah well. When you're that fantastic a player, and when you've won everything there is to win, I guess you're allowed a few flaws.
