When will footballers learn that getting stuff shaved into the side of their head is a trend that should die out quicker than Emo, Heelys or MiniDiscs?
It's one of those rare fashion statements that everyone realises is hideous while it's supposedly on trend and provides a fairly iron-tight argument that if a God exists, humans are surely his greatest mistake.
If we were made in a higher power's likeness, imagine being greeted with disgust once the creator spots that you've mutilated your hairdo in order to show that you support a certain sports team. He'd probably be like, 'What the fuck, dude?' or, what's more likely, come up with a response more befitting of a Messiah.
The one thing that's certain though is that no matter how much adoration the big man upstairs has for the sacks of garbage that are slowly killing planet Earth, he would almost definitely giggle like a school girl at what Argentine footballer Brian Sarmiento has done to his head.
Sarmiento recently made the move to Newell's Old Boys and he appears to be enjoying his time at his new club so far. To prove this, he did what any donkey-brained fool would do in his situation - he got the club's crest shaved into his head.

Genius. Nothing wrong with that, surely.
He can just count his blessings that the term 'knob head' hasn't taken off over in South America, because if it had, he would have given rival supporters fuel for the fire. He's fortunate in that he can be proud of being a 'Nob' head with only assholes like us willing to rip the piss out of him.
