That's great!!
with a name like that [;)][:D]
WHAT A PUNK!!
However, you'll find people that do that in every sport. Basketball is a big offender.
Soccer was a sport invented for kids that couldn't play football.[;)]
Or the kids of parents who don't want their kids to kill themselves in their forties after a career in the NFL full of drugging and brain trauma.[;)]
I've been telling the NFL for a few years now that they need to ban hard shell helmets.
Once you take their weapon away they'll stop using it.
If they're stupid enough to still lead with their heads with a soft-shell helmet then they deserve a concussion.
I love soccer but I can't stand that fake injury bs they pull all the time.
WHAT A PUNK!!
I hate professional floppers.
Barcelona have made a dynasty based on flopping.
They need to card the clowns for that and for crying for somebody else to get a card.

Soccer was invented for the football players that could play for more than 30 seconds at a time without a 40 second break. [:D]

Isn't that the truth.
Now that I'm a bona fide soccer fan I can't stand to watch any American football games.
They are TOO DAMN SLOW and uneventful.
BORING.......
I love the English Premier League...the NFL can die and rot for all I care.
So it seems American football was invented for people that needed breaks every 20 seconds.
Or maybe it was invented so there were more sports statistics to waste your time keeping track of.
Soccer was invented before American football.

The football was actually invented when a lineman sat on a soccer ball. They could never get it to be ROUND again! [:D]
That is UNAMERICAN!!!!

no no no...football was invented so that the fatties could play the line and would not feel left out by the athletic guys [:D]
now rugby...there's a crazy sport, its like football without a couple hundred dollars worth of protective gear [:D]
is it good strategy to get your team a free shot at scoring a point? HELL YES
"soccer" (official name: Association Football) is a VERY conservative team sport (the Brits invented it, of course...) They changes the rules very little over the years and made no changes to utilize improved technology. Unlike American Football and Ice Hockey, there is STILL no video review in "Association Football"...whatever the ref calls on the field stands. Until they have video review this kind of poop will keep happening as player try to exploit the rules to help their team.
