A Croatian football star says his team are losing matches because he can no longer commit fouls since finding God.
Hajduk Split defender Goran Granic has come in for a storm of criticism for abandoning his trademark hard tackles on opponents.
But Granic has now revealed his Catholicism is behind his softer style of play.
He told daily newspaper Slobodna Dalmacija: "I'm so devoted to God now that I have started to avoid committing fouls during matches.
"God has created football for fun and relaxation. He would not like players to commit harsh fouls."
He added: "I could probably have saved some key goals during the season, including in the Champions League qualifying games, if I had committed fouls to stop players scoring."
Hajduk Split are reigning Croatian champions but this season they failed to qualify for the Champions League and are currently fifth in the Croatian league.
Nobody liked girls back then and while we understand that showing Mark Antony being rattled by a slave boy is unlikely to increase ratings we are concerned about the education implications.
Do we really want our Children to grow up thinking Cesar wasn't a big gayer?

The show got me going to read on into the history, which I hadn't brushed up on.. One book: Rubicon: The Last Years of the Roman Republic brought it into good focus. I recommend it, by a Brit author.
The production took its own liberties with the storyline, but held pretty close to the history. What comes up basically is Octanian and Antony's triumvirate as they chase down Brutus and the other assassins (also Cicero). I'm sure the Servilia plot line will settle itself through this. Perhaps for a third season they will resolve the matter with Octavian winning out over suicidal Antony/Cleopatra
What I didn't like was they had lots of good sex (i.e., Atia) in the first couple episodes but then they really let up. The violence at least came to a great crescendo.
