Odd Ball: Giant Squid’s Eyes Are Biggest In The World, Like Soccer Balls. Soccer. Balls!

We like science as much as sports, mainly because our papi is a world renowned mosquito expert. (Did you know mosquitoes have cojones?) So when a tipster sent us—for whatever reason—this story about a giant squid in New Zealand with the biggest eyes in the world, we clapped and flailed are flimsy arms in a bit of hysteria because we though the blogger we met the other night [snorting Adderall] had the biggest eyes ever!

Scientists studying the carcass of what they call the heaviest squid ever found have discovered it has eyes as big as soccer balls — reportedly the largest in the world.
The colossal squid’s eyes were measured at about 27 centimeters (10.8 inches) across by researchers, who have been defrosting it and a smaller specimen at Te Papa, the national museum of New Zealand.

Something tells us Ronaldo’s eyes were bigger when he realized he’d hired transvestites in Rio.
