I think they teach this in the modern NBA. May as well be playing soccer these days.

Please don't disgrace soccer by comparing it to the dunkball, that is the NBA.

Let's not turn this into a referendum on the merits or lack thereof of soccer and basketball. Let's just enjoy dirks German hilarity

Soccer disgraces itself enough already.

Watched the Alabama LSU game from last year last night. Mingo has a pretty nice flop in it. He blocks a pass and Fluker shoves him. He takes a few steps back and flops like a fish to the ground

Never caught it in the 10 or so times I've watched the game

Falling down, for any reason, when there's no chance of a penalty isn't flopping. Mingo falling in a scenario like that couldn't possibly lead to a flag.

Flopping is done to get a call.


ETA: And 10 times is WAY to many to watch a football game.

Is this some kind of a retort/jab? They flop in the NBA too, ok. I don't care for either sport very much, but flopping has been a key to success in soccer for a while.

I recall when I stopped taking soccer seriously. When an American can take a hit like this and Italians are fish out of water all game:

What do you mean by that last part?
The cheap shot on mcbride made you quit watching soccer?
