The poor English should have been your first clue. Please do your own research before posting fake news to this forum. You make us all look bad by posting crap like this.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. This is 100% true. I used to play soccer in high school and college. People kept falling over dead left and right all the time. You can’t stop the game when someone dies. Why didn’t they replace the whistle with something else? Anything louder would kill more people. We all took it as fact that at least 3 people would die per game. Tournaments were especially difficult times. I don’t know why everyone suddenly is freaking out about whistles now.
Whether it's fabricated or not, I'm not taking the propaganda platform Reuters at their word. Might as well be a Snopes or CNN "fact-check." That being said, writers typically do better with punctuation and run-on sentences when publishing.
Remember, these people are EXPERTS and you are not. Trust the science. Imagine how much worse it would be without the robust protection of the sacred vaccine! Be grateful and get your booster. /S/
Of course... referee whistles are only a recent thing. In the past, no referee would ever blow a whistle... so no players had heart attacks in the middle of the playing field.
We should have foreseen that sudden increases in whistle usage can be traumatic.
I think even the stupidest of stupid people won't even buy this one.
Not the Bee, true, but by its language it's a different obvious satire. This has been posted at least twice before. Learn our comms.
they are mocking us

Well this makes sense, after all, the past year is the first time whistles have been used in sports. /s

I heard this was photoshopped into the "Irish Examiner," and that it's fake and gay
I do not believe this story is real. I tried to verify it yesterday.
Fake picture
Ban them at once!

Ban referees!!! We'll have a mail-in vote to see which team wins.
Tighten up on the fake news posting pal.
Rape whistles are considered a lethal weapon.
