  2. That's the joke of this whole thing. It was hardly a head butt. A head butt is into the bridge of the nose and shatters bone and cartilage. The Italian player obviously embellished the fall. There is no doubt in my mind that Zidane snapped and went to head butt the guy in the real way, and then at the very last second something clicked inside him and he directed the head down to the guys chest as opposed to into his nose.

    I won't be watching World Cup next time around because of the disgraceful diving. It is sickening to see pro athletes behaving like that.

    I guess you have been reading on this particular subject.

    What is driving you to do that?

    Is it because of your current performance as a trader?

    First Ravanelli, now Clemente Mastella. And there is not even a smiley. Things in this thread are getting worse. :)

    By the way, are you sure you posted the right link? I can't find any reference to Mastella. Luckily
    Actually, if this is wrong maybe it's better if you don't post the right one.

    This does actually make kind of sense. I almost agree.

  7. "drama" has been part of the game for decades.

    True. I actually think people are doing it less.
    Yet, that doesn't make the game nicer. And FIFA knows it. They are getting harder with the actors.
    Wish they did also something to stop the actors screaming and crying after a foul just to waste time. I wonder why they never used an effective time, instead of using the fourth official to give the extra minutes.
