Ahhh, soccer is for short small weasels.

Try telling that to one of the German players.

"As I tell all the young men that play soccer ... to "be respectful ... and ALWAYS remember, you may be the real players ... but it is the Ref's field, no matter how bad the call might be."

That's a damn good philosophy Mr. American-person. The attitude of your average English/European player towards the ref is a disgrace. It's also something our youths are apparently copying from, a worrying thing. If there's one thing we can from the Yanks in Footy it's civil politeness and decency on the pitch. In our matches no one respect the ref, even the fans don't like them. Keep reminding yourselves of that and you'll set a shining example for the rest of us, a team that learns respect is a winning team.
