This kid does not take trash talk lightly. If you mouth off to him, he will chase you down the length of the pitch and smash into you like a freight train, even if you have absolutely zero to do with what’s happening on the ball. And then he’ll get up and walk away, satisfied ...
DTotD: Worst. Coach. Ever.

(skip ahead to 15 seconds in)
There are a number of things you shouldn’t do when you’re a grown man coaching little kids. Pretty high up on that list is trying to show off while playing against them by blasting a shot that nearly decapitates one of the smaller children.
I ...
DTotD: Celebration fail
dirtytackle.net 16 days ago —
Last Saturday’s derby between Hamilton and Motherwell produced a few DTotD worthy tackles and some fine goals, too. Our interest in the game, however, is when Hamilton’s overly excited manager, Billy Reid, celebrates his side’s second goal (both scored a man down) by ...
DTotD: Two for one
dirtytackle.net 9/30/2009 —
Today is your lucky day — we’ve got two dirty tackles in one clip for you. That’s right, go eat some expired cheese, because you can’t lose!
Anyway, in the first clip young Mr. Joey Richmond gets thrown to the ground (0:30; keep your eyes on the background in ...
DTotD: Ball to the face
dirtytackle.net 11 days ago —
There’s a lot to be impressed with in this clip. Mostly in how #20 was able to nail his opponent square in the face at such a sharp angle and that said opponent quickly recovered to go after it.
The clip ends too soon, though. I have a feeling #20 didn’t come out of that ...
DTotD: Free kick to the face
dirtytackle.net 10 days ago —
Another day, another head shot. This really is the final straw for American girls soccer, though. I mean, the hair pulling and dirty tackles are one thing, but to take aim and obliterate an opponent’s face like this on a free kick is just way over the line. And totally hilarious.

DTotD: Face Smash

The girl needed 14 stitches for that one. And judging by how far she slid, they should probably test the guy who hit her for head enhancing drugs.
DTotD: Double team
dirtytackle.net 9/17/2009 —
This is teamwork. Usually you see just one player go in for a bad challenge, but not on this team. They stick together and make sure the job is done. That job? Obliterating their defenseless target. Like the old saying goes: four sets of studs are better than two. Unless, you know, ...
DTotD: Synchronized injuries
dirtytackle.net 10/28/2009 —
If this didn’t result in a concussion, it would actually kind of be a thing of beauty. I do enjoy the cameraman’s reaction, though. I’m not sure if he’s responding to what just happened on the pitch or something bellow the view of the lens.
DTotD: Insult to injury 2

Simply put: St. Patrick’s Athletic striker Mark Quigley gets a yellow card and a fractured jaw for pulling up as the opposing goalkeeper flies knee first into him. Now, I understand how he got the fractured jaw, but the yellow card? Not so much.
DTotD: So very wrong
dirtytackle.net 10/7/2009 —
Alright, this kid extremely confused. First of all, he takes down a player off the ball. Secondly, he does so with an American football tackle. Thirdly, that player he took down was on his team. Fourthly, that teammate was a girl. Fifthly, his shirt goes down to his knees.
I blame the ...
