Italy's Manager Blessed Us With An A+, Spur Of The Moment Freakout

If you think I am familiar enough with the general disposition and temperament of a European futbol manager then you are a pretty lousy thinker. It's very possible this type of behavior is a common occurrence for Antonio Conte, but I have reason to believe (my own personal sense of hope) that the flawless boot that kickstarted (pun intended) a voice compromising rant was as spontaneous as it gets. It's for that reason that I found this 6 second clip of a grown man acting like a toddler to be so awe-inspiring. It's not the fact that a soccer coach kicked a ball across the field, it's the fact that he made it look so natural while so clearly enraged. Simple tasks became far more difficult when the person doing them has been frustrated to the point of lashing out physically. There's no doubt that a mild mannered Antonio Conte makes this play with ease, but the fact that he was a slight tick in blood pressure away from a heart attack exponentially increased the likelihood of him whiffing and/or falling directly on his ass. Just a flawless transition in every sense of the word. Didn't even wait until the ball made contact with his foot before he began screaming some indecipherable epithet towards the official. A multi-taskmaster of the highest order if I have ever seen one. I'm assuming the guy knows how to coach too, but all that matters to me is that he can simultaneously bitch, moan, and "Bobby Knight". We need more guys like Antonio Conte in sports.
