I am watching the Mex/Cmr game right now and after just a slight tap on the knees from another player, the guy goes down in agony like he has just been shot.

I am all for trying to sell a call, but these guys are ridiculous.

Well Dos Santos was Rudy on the Cosby Show according to a top source on this board.

It's pretty bad, but if you do it right it can gain a huge advantage for your team. Like Fred did in the box to win a penalty yesterday. Until there are stiffer penalties levied to curb diving the possible advantage will always outweigh the cost.

I saw a youtube video posted the other day called The art of the NFL flop
and all football players are fat so one of them is probably the biggest actors.

Yep.

which is the reason players like lebron flops or falls extremely easier than they should.

bigger players wont get calls unless they flop and why not. in NBA it is just a fine and can lead to shots and the ball. in soccer its the same way, worst case scenario its a yellow. best a red card for opposing team and a penalty

More diving in Hockey and Basketball, but I'd probably have soccer as third.

haha forgot the players in nfl and college faking an injury to rest and allow a substitution when playing chip kelly's offense..

Imagine instead of having to worry about a play being ran every 8 seconds, it was continuous.

Y'all have a strange obsession with LeBron on this board. What position would he play?

You have a strange obsession with trolling this board, does that get you off at night?

A Stars player had a near death heart incident and didn't want to leave the game. They constanly have teeth knocked out, concussions, broken bones, and still finish games. They fight during the game, and then proceed to wipe the blood off of them, get stitched on the bench like a prize fighter and continue playing. Not sure what flops you are talking about, because I can't think of many incidents where they have ever faked an injury.

What does that have to do with flopping?

I am just saying I have never seen them flop, in fact the opposite. They play even when they shouldn't. They do not have an instict to fake injuries like you see in soccer or basketball. It is the furthest thing from their mind or the personality of their sport.
