News titles are mad libs these days
It's like a clickbait headline but it's the incomprehensibility that causes you to want to click so your brain can solve the mystery of whatever tf that title is supposed to mean
The DailyMail created this eternal hype train of feeling interested/skeptical/disappointed.
Then it turns out to be the most concise description of the ridiculous thing in the article.
If you told me that a sandwich toss setback was a kind of football play, I wouldn't know enough to dispute it.
If you told me it was naughty funtimes with two other British blokes I'd believe you.
