Soccer Headline Fail

Sports can be rather sexual. (Via Probably Bad News)
Picture by: dunno source Submitted by: Y2p731 via Fail Uploader
This headline refers to Juventus, who are known at The Old Lady after their draw with Belorussian team FC BATE.
MASTER FAIL
Failblog phail. Old Lady = Vecchia Signora (Juventus FC’s nickname). Nedved is the Juventus’ player pictured.
Sorry for being anoracky and spoil the fun.
And it’s not soccer, it’s football (as in ball played with the feet).
By now you should have noticed I’m European.
European fail. Read the subtitle!
Comment phail, I did.
Just adding a bit more info for those who would like to know more. Yes, I’m fu%king magnanimous.
So why’s it a failblog fail then? Cos they didn’t name the player? Cos they didn’t quote the Italian? Cos they call football ’soccer? And where is Magnanamia anyway?
I just noticed that Ricardo is European.
He is? I was sure he was Asian.
mastetBATE,come on
masterbate*
good for you ricardo
The reason American football is called Football is cause when it was originated there where many rules making it so feet where used often ie more often than hands hence the name football
So know the history of why something is called what it is before taking not so well hidden digs at the country its played in
Oh And im from New Zealand No where near the states so dont start that crap
Nah American football is just Rugby with armour!
Eh, it’s certainly descended from a game very much like rugby. But Teddy Roosevelt threatened to regulate that if it weren’t made less dangerous, and the end result was the weird thing that we have now.
Uh, American Football has never used feet more than hands. Not even before the inception of the NFL.
It appears that the automatic electronic crap starter’s on the blink. Does anybody have one of those old fashioned hand turned crap starters going?
And it’s not football (as in ball played with feet).
It’s football (as in ball played on foot as opposed to ball played on horseback, as the nobles would play it).
opps but then again it is soccer.
Master BATE, get it?
Fail recognition fail imho.\^^
I find it irrelevant that you post a reply on my post saying some BS. We Americans apologize that we forgot Europeans DO NOT have a sense of humor. Cmon man just laugh at the mistake, no need to be a smart ass about it.
How could he help it? He’s European and no European ever had a sense of humour. You said it.
Besides, who wouldn’t rather be a smart ass than a dumb ass?
I don’t get it. Was that supposed to be a joke?
Do you even know where Europe is? Hint: NOT next to Canadia land.
Or, as some would put it, “I pity the fool”. Now, get up from your chair, go outside and get some fresh air. Do you still remember what it is? (or shouldn’t I take the piss out of dinosauric members of FB?)
Where’s Canadia land?
Next to Candida land?
Is that where the Calahari is?
I Canard’ly believe that.
Well, I Canawt say it for sure.
You silly old C#nts.
I’ve got to wash my mouth now. And get some fresh air.
Wash your mouth? Did you help out that old lady who couldnt master bate? Very noble of you, not very nice to call her genitals silly though.
Go to bed.
Ricardo you fail, you are abvously unable to master bate at home, as you seem to have missed the fail.
But it totaly agree with your “And it’s not soccer, it’s football” comment, i think arrogant yanks just want to call it soccer, cos they already have their American Football that they call football for some reason.
Really, the most popular sport in the world is yank-bashing, isn’t it?
But there are *many* different football games, not just association football and American football. It isn’t *arrogant* that most association football fans outside of America call their game just “football”, and use some different term for Gaelic football, &c. And it isn’t *arrogant* when American’s call their just “football”, and use some different term for Gaelic football, &c. We talk about American football a h_ck of a lot more than we do about association football or any other football game, so we the first just “football”. You talk about association football a lot more than about any other football game, so you call it just “football”. The name “soccer” wasn’t invented by Americans; we got it from Europeans. And it’s quicker and easier than “association football”.
You ought to consider whence your inference of peculiar American *arrogance* where there is a symmetry of behavior.
Apostrophe fail:
. when Americans call their just “football”
“Not putting Americans first and treating them as if they were naturally superior to everyone else” does not equal “yank-bashing”.
Calling Americans “arrogant” for doing something perfectly equivalent to what most Europeans and others do as well, in all cases innocently, *is* yank-bashing.
FAILBLOG FAIL!
win…
the puns I mean…
we got “pun”ished
you’re “pun”ny
I’ll have a punt at one: “Death to all pun…. ah f`uck it.”
NOT FIRST
No matter how quick you are, there will always be a faster troll.
Shame they couldn’t pull it off.
They nearly spanked those monkeys.
say let’s help her?
we’re going to need a LOT of lube.
*passes brain bleach around*
oh man, good you have one of those.
remember failblogger, never leave your eye/brain bleach behind!
Eek! A cat!!!
a mouse!
ahh where’s my eye bleach? oh, there it is…
That’s LGB for you, always doing as she’s told.
*Squeeze*
*superskaweezysqueezeQwazy*
Goal unreachable.
orgasm unreachable… for the old lady.
I thought that’s where it was supposed to be done….um…not that i would know…um…what I meanis…um…hey, Colts and Saints in the Super Bowl!!! Wohoo…um…yeah.
Typical for a football site edited by Americans.. The country has no other styles of humour to fall back on so they always have to result to being crude, because their people wouldn’t understand anything more subtle.
Not funny. Why not go to the top of a cliff and toss yourself off?
This coming from the continent that invented french films, bad teeth, ugly moviestars, hairy women, and european disdain for anything that’s not european.
As stupid as Alex’ comment was, you top it.
rather live in that continent than in a continent where:
-people are so fat they constantly are trown in the ocean because they think it was a wale
-it is normal that everyone carrys guns arround, but not normal if one person wants a decent health care
-people are so stupid that they build cheap, wooden houses in areas where there are tornado’s?!
-ow yeah and did a say already americans are fat? they are!
I sense you’re angry. Wanna talk about it?
Nah! not angry at all!
I like america.. from a distance:
-all these things are funny to read (special ambulances for fat people, people who go to coart because ‘they didn’t know cigarettes where toxic’, ….)
- €>>$ -> cheap sales on the net!!
I love how people continue to use horrible stereotypes to hate on people making horrible stereotypes. Your mothers must be so proud of the intelligent children they have raised.
5 people proud of me! How many people proud of you?
I didn’t know New Zealand had all of those things? Stupid American assumptions…
We must learn to master our joysticks like a fisherman masters bait.
This one’s old, it’s from last year’s champions league, when juventus drew with BATE Borisov while playing at home. And the title was not on purpose, from what I remember they changed it after a few hours once they realized it.
The title wasn’t on purpose? Hah, that makes it a fail!
AE, I admire your determination.
He’s German and has therefore no sense of humour, but boy does he have determianation!
His spellingchecker is also more gründlich than mine.
I don’t have one. If I had it would be gründlich and ordentlich.
My mastery of BATE is far too incomprehendable for you!
FAIL BLOG take note. its not a fail if its intentional
Sometimes, intentions are failures.
Here is a puzzler
Two old ladies in a bath tub. One says “Where’s the soap?”
The other one grins and says “Sure does”
I dont get it.
If not a troll, then imagine what the second old lady might be doing with the soap that would “wear [away] the soap”.
Golly, I accidenty the i-word, and it worked!
I drew back a stump
bloody loose kernels again!
That happens because Americans are not interested in soccer at all…
Old lady is the name of that team!
How much would it cost me to get a bed from you? Vollholz, of course, 160×200.
FIRST!11!!1!!!11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!!!!
first I find out gumtree is not a dating website for seniors and now this!
short of arm, long of genitals
I’ll get you a rabbit on a stick.
better get me some carrots too
failblog fail! They are called the “old lady”.
FAILZ. ZEE FAILZ. FLAIL. FEIL. FIEL. FLIE.
No, OMG its not like Failblog thought that the title is about grande Paolo Nedved (Pavel Nedvěd if you want to have it in czech original) from Juve or about anybody else, it just candid pun, a wordplay – lady unable to master bate means that she couldn’t come (I hope? – but its definitely about the wordplay.

There’s no apostrophe in tornadoes.

Please. If you insist on insulting people, don’t embarrass us English people by being unable to spell, punctuate or use the correct grammar.
It gets a tad embarrassing and therefore your argument is rubbish.
That’s all.
to all the americans: stop calling football “soccer” – i don’t call baseball “bat’n'base” either
I highly doubt your argument here is going to generate much success in terms of getting all of us ignorant Americans to finally refer to the sport as Football.
It’s simple – We refer to our Football as just that, and the other sport as Soccer. Europeans (and pretty much everyone else) refer to one as Football, and the other as American Football.
If I can tell the difference for each sport when reading about it from another countries perspective, then you should be able to as well. Deal with it.
Pavel we miss u!!
PAVEL PAVEL NEDVED! NEDVED!
PAVEL PAVEL NEDVED! NEDVED!
ye old lady means Vecchia Signora and not the player in the photo
I got this one (Master BATE) and I am not a native speaker…
Your doing better than the old lady then.
Knowing Goal.com, this is probably intentional
Yup. Having worked with journalists and sub-editors for a number of years, I know this is the kind of thing the live for.
Everyone would remember the famous “Keegan fills Schmeichel’s gap with Seaman”.
Hmm, then maybe Goal.com didn’t actually score an own-goal. Or maybe they did after all.
YOU MONGOLS THE OLD LADY IS JUVENTUS’ NICKNAME, NOOBS
lmfaoooo, i dont get it…do people acually not understand the fail here?…
But wouldn’t that make Juventus master of their domain?
headlines a lie. i bet he masterbates more then anybody, just look at his right forarm. Jackshoww
the old lady is the nicname of the italian soccer team juventus the player in the picture is from juventus
you what would be a nice idea before posting? reading the other posts. Ok we get it. Old lady is a nick name for a team… it could be a name of a beagle or a rare sickness! Its the phrase that matters and the literal meaning that counts! Seriously cant people just look at the picture ,laugh post something random and go on? instead the start a hole discussion about fail or no fail… i bet third word war will start in a blog….
Look, I just spent a lot of time reading down through the comments and arguments.
We all get it, there was a mistake in the typing and it’s being read as ‘Masterbate’. So what?
And! So what if we Americans called our type of football ‘football’? It’s not like we’re torturing you by calling it that, are we? We’re not stabbing you with it by calling it football.
And I have got a question for Europeans who gave a hearty argument about this. Why is it so wrong to call football ’soccer’. I used to even play soccer and our team was Team Brazil! I even tried to make my coach call it football instead of soccer. So just leave us alone. We’re not doing nothing wrong by calling sports different names.
So just grow up, will you?!
It’s just like being a racist! Judging others by what they look like and not really knowing whats underneath.
And for all of you who said that Americans are fat! I happen to know a very large amount of people trying to lose weight or have already lost weight.
So bug off!
Please read through what I said before adding (another) smartass comment. Americans aren’t bad.
That was hilarious.
btw, FORZA JUVE!
It’s not really a fail though, more like a win for a good joke. There’s no way that wasn’t intentional.
I think the pun was intentional, and if it was changed soon after, it was a result of an editor seeing it as inappropriate headline content, rather than seeing that there was accidental punnery involved. Fail on all your houses.
BATE is a belarian football club…
this is a win
I´m European, I got the funny part, I dont mind you calling our football, soccer, I think you do have a bit of a weight-problem in your country but I dont think we should blame it on America though.. We can always blame it on Napoleon or global warming.
-Thank you, Mister bates
-Bates, Norman Bates
Fail Blog Failed
Old Lady is the nickname of our big club. Nedved is Old Boy
Old lady = Juventus nick name ( italian soccer club )
BATE borisov = Belarusian soccer club
As someone who writes headlines, I’d wager the writer knew exactly what he (or she) was doing. This is a WIN, not a FAIL.
You guys fail, it’s photo shopped.
juve merda!!!forza inter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ladri Inter pezzo di merdaa….. Forza Juveee……
and “soccer” is not a word by the way..it’s football everywhere
Actually Juventus is well know as Vecchia Seniora(Signora) which comes to be Old Lady. There’s no fail here,the truly fail was the guy who uploaded this as an attempt to post,but he failed epicly.
Bate is a football club. F.C Bate his whole name. No Fail at picture,Fail is the guy who uploaded.
You fail Epic XD. Read the subtitle of the actual image. If you read the very second comment, he did the same exact thing that you did. He mentioned that he made a mistake. So for you…DOUBLE FAIL.
bah
it’s masturbate, not masterbate…
