Brazilian Soccer Team Manager Forces Players to Wear Frilly Pink Dresses

File this under, you better get your game up, or I'm going to embarrass you.

This odd tactic of putting soccer players who aren't giving their all in practices, is from the mind of Roberto Fernandes, manager of Figueirense, a Brazilian football team.

The player in the picture above is 21-year-old central defender Jairo. As the story goes, Fernanades was extremely frustrated with Jairo's play, so he put Jairo in the skimpy/sassy top. Jairo's response was empathetic and immediate. In the manager's words, Jairo gave one of the team's top performances next match.

Damn straight!


The local news even covered it.
