I once asked my Spanish/Swedish amiga if she understood my impressive repertoire of Mexican curse words.

None.

Well puta, but that one crosses all boundaries.


Maybe negro means something like FRIEND in the Pampas. It was all big misunderstanding Patrice. Luis just wanted to be friends.

So these allegations are coming from a guy who has been on loan from his team to several different teams the latest of which has left him out of the lineup because of disciplinary reasons....he seems like a credible guy. A credible guy no one wants around, but a credible guy nonetheless.

1.) No, I get it.
2.) It is what Evra told the FA Suarez said.
3.) Ok.

It's not what Suarez told the FA.

He said, she said.

I don't know if I really believe what he says, especially given Messi's reputation for being an upstanding guy.


I believe it, because it is a common practice in South America to call black people Negro with out it being racist term...

I have never understood whats so hard to believe/understand about that...

In europe dudes kiss dudes... doesnt make 'em gay, just a different way of doing things...

He also called out some of his own teammates (note both of them were from South America)

The only thing to take from it is that Latinos often identify people by their skin color while playing football. I've been called gringo and guero many a time playing against the Mexicans in the park.



This is all that should be took from it.

Suarez, allegedly, pointed to Evra's skin and called him "negro" in a derogatory fashion several times.



Drenthe said Messi said it in a "negative tone." How is it different?

Kinda funny when you think about it.

Obviously

A. The Spanish Football Federation doesn't entertain baseless claims
B. It's Messi

We all know that comparing Messi's "incident" and Suarez's incident is comparing apple to oranges.

There is really no discussion and I'm not even a Messi fan per say.


As far as Suarez, I think everyone has stated how they feel in that 60 page thread. It is what it is.

Not really. The only differences:

A. It's not the FA
B. Fergie isn't involved

Very similar other than that

They sound almost exactly the same to me. The only difference is that Messi doesn't whine at refs, which makes him innocent.

They aren't the same when you're doing an investigation and one has video evidence and one does not. FA ruled because the video evidence didn't match Suarez's claims. Also, the accusation from Evra came pretty swift. Whereas, Drenthe has been suspended by his own team for being a detrimental to his own team AND his accusations came what? a year afterwards ?

So basically, if a guy, with a bad attitude, steals something, is accused quickly. there is video evidence and a court rules guilty.

It is the same as a guy, with a great attitude, being accused of stealing a year later by a guy with a shitty attitude AND no video evidence ?

If Messi did say something deliberately, then I don't mind him getting suspended for La Liga games. I don't think anyone should get suspended for words said on the pitch in the heat of the moment. No harm, is done. However, as a organization I can see why the FA suspended Suarez. They have a lot more at stake.

John Terry allegedly called Antoine Ferdinand a f*ing black c*nt, but if you know the british he really called him a f*ing bloody c*nt. bloody and black both start with bl and on tv, you can't read the end of the word, just the first "bl". This will be proven this summer the royal court system.

It'll be interesting to see how it goes down. Thats for sure. I think the FA will be forced to suspended Terry. Just because they have a lot in stake in trying to keep the EPL racism free, although there isn't such a thing. Kinda damned if they do, damned if they don't situation.

Do we really need to discuss the whole Suarez incident again?

Can't we all just agree that Liverpool fans are biased and everybody else is right?

You do realize there was absolutely NO video evidence of what Evra claims Suarez did. There was also no eyewitness evidence from any Liverpool or United players, or the referees either.

I'll agree with this. I'm going to fight it regardless though.
