Breakups: lost relationships, suspensions, transfers, loans…

He’s Going Where?!: a normal reaction to a breakup.

I’m So Over You: yellow & red cards, suspensions, benching (like when Mou benched San Iker, smh…still smh), transfers &  loans, resignations, dismissals…

The Instigator: the one initiating the cat-fights that the media immortalizes.

Keeping It Real: performing a heroic act that amps up respectability in the profession or as a human being.  i.e. Boateng walking off the pitch to counteract the racist attacks, Klose admitting to a hand. The opposite of a “Hand of God” move.

You Did NOT Just Say That: dismal statements of any nature.
