I wish I kn ow where a lot of you are from as it would help me understand your points of view.
I love the skill, U-10’s to a Messi & NeMar & the like.
I hate the cheating and the encouragement and letting it by in adult soccer and especially upper level teams and such.
Best herd sport around IMO. The pro fouls do not add anything to the game & they take away a lot.
As long as they will let players like L Suarez keep playing with his uncontrolled and dirty underhand violence that is not even
about gaining an advantage, he just likes to hurt people for no reason, I can’t get behind all the love when you have L Messi that is a joy to watch and does not need to be a diving, crocked cheating lousy excuse or a human being as do many of the others…
Anyway, do the FIFA Referees at the world Cup at least get an ass chewing for their major stupidity?
In general, FIFA linesmen are referees that want to be in the middle, run lines very seldom and 50% are totally incompetent IMO.
Well, I am not any kind of player or ref anymore, old sucks, but I will watch soccer over any other herd sport.
I really bprefer single person spot competion that no one can say you did nopt do it or have control or law -rule interpertations.
Shooting
Archery
Non team sprinting / running
Distance swimming
etc.
If you can do it, you can do it the best of anyone else o0n any given Sunday.
It just seems a shame to teach kids that youth sports mean nothing because to be the best, you must lie, cheat & fake your way to winning.
Gonna go watch some not World Cup level soccer.
Be well folks. Ain’t got your health, you do not have anything.
