being a fan of boxing, i find it embarrassing to watch world level soccer. all the flailing and falling and pretending to be hurt. getting them selves carried off on a stretcher only be sprayed by mist from a can and to return to the match as if uninjured (which is easy cause they aren't hurt to begin with). its pathetic!

i played soccer for 11 years and was a referee as well. the game is terrific to play but watching the world cup is too frustrating.
