I hope the repercussions of this (so called) man's actions are far reaching in his life.
He deserves NOTHING good to some to him for a long long while.

Sack the bastard and make sure he never plays professional football again.
Additionally, prosecute him for cruelty.
Sorry about the language, but I feel it is justified in this case.

BOGOTA, Colombia -- Soccer fans are crying fowl over kicking an owl. In fact, they're crying a lot worse.
Panama defender Luis Moreno is facing sanctions after he kicked an injured owl that landed on the field during a game Sunday when his Colombian club Deportivo Pereira was playing Atletico Junior.
The owl is a mascot for Atletico Junior and was being treated Monday at a veterinary clinic in Barranquilla. The bird is expected to recover from a slight fracture of its right leg.
The owl had landed injured near the corner of the field when Moreno walked over and kicked it about three yards. Atletico Junior fans shouted "murder, murder."
Moreno said he did not know the bird was a good-luck charm for the other team.

Update:
According to press reports the owl died of shock two days later, Moreno is getting death threats and faces up to three months in jail.

The fact that this took place in an uncivilazed, piss pot country like Columbia where most of it's populations are interbred and high on drugs because it's the only way that they can forget the fact that as a country they are a pointless waste of space on the map, is irrelevant

Well I've just sent this link to the Colombian Police Department and asked them to take the necessary action to arrest this thug!
Animal cruelty makes me sick... I hope someone gets him!
