Oh really? Why are there hundreds of soccer flopping videos like this one all over YouTube?

It's not a physical sport. You can't even make contact with another player without someone flopping or falling on their arse and wanting a penalty. I'll give them credit for having good cardio, but it's not a contact sport at all.

I've never seen a QB or kicker sell a hit. Just because its not football doesn't mean it's not physical.

No different from basketball.

Have you played? I have seperated both shoulders, had my orbital socket broken, cheek bone broken and had my nose broken twice. Many sprains of knees and ankles.

Flopping is an issue of course. Mostly for the Latin side of the game. The governing bodies are trying to crack down and it will take time.

It ceratinly is. It isn't a collision sport like American football, rugby or hockey. It is more of a contact sport than basketball or baseball.
