Fighting in hockey isn’t cheating.

Yes, but the other great tradition of professional hockey--throwing yourself to the ice and flopping around like a fish in an attempt to draw a penalty--is.

Please.

When it comes to diving and hamming it up to draw a penalty call, no sport takes a second place to soccer.

I'm thinking the Italian national team in particular.
