Killed for the Game

So, my father was telling me about this Man (S. African) who was beat to death by his wife and kids for wanting to watch soccer.
David Makoeya, a 61-year-old man from the small village of Makweya, Limpopo province, fought with his wife and two children for the remote control Sunday because he wanted to watch Germany play Australia in the World Cup. The others, however, wanted to watch a gospel show.
Makoeya got up to change the channel by hand after being refused the remote control and was attacked by his 68-year-old wife Francina and two children, 36-year-old son Collin and 23-year-old daughter Lebogang. It's not known what the family used to kill Makoeya. It appears they banged his head against the wall. They phoned the police only after he was badly injured, but by the time the police arrived the man was already dead.

Soccer makes people go crazy. Literally!

Go England!
