this whole uproar over Luis when he gets stomped on, leaving cuts on his chest, and Bale's even worse dive, and Suarez is still Satan.
I agree there is a double standard. Bale can dive all day long and it barely gets mentioned while Suarez gets hammered in the media if he were to slip and fall. Never forget that British players (Bale and Young) don't dive only scummy foreigners do.

I think that would be the only problem any of us have with it. Suarez is a massive douche, but he is by no means the most despicable person in the EPL. I think a good bit of his diving stems from the fact that if he stays on his feet he is at a disadvantage. Did he bring that upon himself? Yes. Doesn't change the fact that the officiating isn't objective and its getting borderline out of control.

My problem isn't just the double standard, it's the fact that calling Suarez out now just seems like the cool thing to do and the easiest way to get your name into the news.
This is why I hate the international break. Players are asked dumb questions, they respond with dumb answers and we have to read dumb fricking "news."
