Because Hirshey isn't filing today, it's up to us to provide your daily dose of soccer bidness. Here's a goal a low-level British soccer league.
We think, after a shot like that, you don't get to strut as if you just didn't something over which you had total control. If you can classify that as "strutting."

Low-level British soccer league? My soccer games at the town's rec center had more people on the sidelines than that.
bidness
You trying to tell me how to talk, Leech?
/not actually black
Low-level? If that were Italy, it'd be Serie Z.
Sorry I suck. -- other goalie.
No choreographed celebration? This is low-level soccer.
That pass was waaay off.
Much like Eight Belles, the opposing goalie was immediately euthanized for his own good.
I've done more demonstrative celebrations with the guys on a foosball table.
Big Deal. I saw Harry Blackstone do that on the old Dean martin Show with two goats.
Needs more sports.
Tiger Woods high-five > Awkward English man-boy-hug
Isn't that kind of like a missed alley-oop that actually finds its way into the basket?
@asliceofbacon: Is that half man, half boy-hug?
"We think, after a shot like that, you don't get to strut as if you just didn't something over which you had total cont would be proud of."
The English would be proud.
Pavel Kubina of the New York Islanders is unimpressed:

The keeper couldn't get a good leap at the ball because of the dodgy pitch and Tim Tebow had nipped his tallywacker.
@1980 David Bowie From The Music Video Ashes To Ashes: @asliceofbacon: no no no, i think its half man half boy half hug
@Yostal: Did the Isles sign Kubina?
Sage advice from the sideline..."He's off his line [some name I didn't quite catch, maybe Scotty]." Sign him up to replace Avram Grant.

How's that now?
@UkraineNotWeak: +1 for agedness.
To be fair, it's hard to be excited at a soccer game if there's no riots going on.
@Sir Hotbod Handsomeface: No, I blew it. I blew it badly. I went to eat dinner in the hopes no one would notice. -1 on myself.
@Sir Hotbod Handsomeface: Leafs fans wish it were so.
To be fair to the goalie in the clip, the dude with the camera, or some one near him, is yelling that the opposing keeper is off his line. That's exactly when you try something like this.

Paul Robinson did this at a real match, not some five-a-side at the Hackney Marshes (or its northern equivalent).
And we all know anything Paul Robinson does is not to be encouraged or celebrated.
Low level is an understatement. They're on the 5th tier of the Welsh league system. Thats pretty much lower than coed rec league basketball here.

@asliceofbacon: My North American Man Boy Hug Association membership is up for renewal in a month. Thanks for the reminder!
@The Joy of Cesc: As always, the funniest part of that clip is on the closeup, where you get the smirking face of Borat laughing at Paul Robinson.
@The Joy of Cesc: In this guy's defense he was trying to do this. The guy on the touchline -- no, the other guy in attendance -- yelled 'He's off his line, Goody.' So Goody -- Steve Goodwin -- went for it.
Paul Robinson, on the other hand, is just a clumsy wanker.
@Catenaccio: Very true, although it's difficult for me to withhold my absolute contempt for all goalkeepers since I came of age when Dave Seaman first started to show signs of dementia.
@The Joy of Cesc: Really? Because it was easy for me to bestow my undying hatred on keepers after seeing Gianluca Pagliuca's hairy Bolognesi ass taking up the entire frame during the 1994 World Cup.
@drjayphd: Not sticking with Marchegiani after Pagliuca's suspension was one of many boneheaded decisions made by Sacchi that summer.
Is that Steve Harper and the Newcastle reserve side?
@Sir Hotbod Handsomeface: Half-shark-alligator, half-man... half-man, half-shark.
@The Joy of Cesc: And here's to you, Misses Robinson. . Tottenham's still praying for a save. . HEY! HEY! HEY!
@Dave J.: +1,000 for Alan Partridge ref... one of the best characters ever.
@The Joy of Cesc: And yet, not as boneheaded as ESPN's director not cutting away from Pagliuca after he chose to wait until the camera was on his ass to pull down his shorts and scratch. There's not enough brain bleach in the world to erase 52 inches of hirsute man-crack.
