From what little I have seen of soccer (as it is on some of the tv’s at the gym) it reminds me of children that fall down and start crying when nobody touched them. Pansies.

A girl’s kickball game.

all professional sports have started doing this ridiculous behavior. Socccer and Basketball are the worst offenders.

They should make rules against faking it and start throwing fakers out of the game.

My son-in-law is a big soccer fan, and I asked him to explain the game to me. We watched a few matches and I found the game interesting once I understood the rules. I’m still a baseball/football/hockey guy, but understanding a sport makes it at least enjoyable. Regarding the flopping, I asked him about that, and he said it’s just a strategy. Players try to get another player a Red flag. I told him I think that’s one of the reasons why soccer hasn’t really caught on in America. We’re about walking it off, but faking an injury.
