OT: Copa America heating up
The 2015 Copa America is in full swing, Chile having advanced over Uruguay last night in part because star Uruguayan player Edinson Cavani being shown a red card after responding to this awesome move by the Chilean defender Gonzalo Jara.
Jara has now been suspended, but it's too late for Uruguay who have now been eliminated. I guess this is Karma payback for all of the Luis Suarez biting incidents over the years from the Uruguayans.

Chile really wants to win and they're not going to let a moral or ethical responsibility get in their way.
Fuck Uruguay. I'm still bitter
All he was doing was giving Cavani a proper prostate exam to be sure that his prostate was of normal size. Men, we all must go and get our prostate's examined!
I think Jara was the dude who gave Suarez's junk a squeeze during WC qualifiers a few years ago.
Plot twist: He's not doing it to get a rise out of his opponents, but to get a rise out of himself....
Also on Dos Santos in the previous Copa
Classic Michele on Valdorama from a 90s Real Madrid Valladollid match.
Copa America has been fantastic this year, so much misbehaving. Chile spent the entire game trying to get Cavani to react since his father had just been arrested for killing a motorcyclist while driving drunk.
Also, I forgot that the knockout round doesn't have extra time and goes straight to penalites. Gonna be interesting to see how the winner of Peru / Bolivia decides to play against Chile.
Penetration how ever slight is intercourse am I right?
In basketball, they man up, take the charge, and it either works or it does not. Then they play on.
They don't writhe around on the ground like little girls pretending they are hurt.
I take it you didn't watch the Heat play? Bron-bron and DWADE made it look like there was a sniper in the stands.
Shit like that really does prevent me from being a bigger soccer fan I feel. Yes, there's some flopping in the NBA, but it's not that bad and it's fairly recent. And I don't watch the NBA anyway. Also, a guy flopping doesn't result in some 15-minute bullshit argument that stops the game for so long.
It really wouldn't be that hard to cut down on it. Just need stronger diving rules, perhaps even after the game with some officials making the call.
If you watch EPL over the other leagues, you're missing out on some top notch soccer that the EPL doesn't have.
Bundesliga and La Liga >>>>>> EPL.
Any of grabbing private parts should result in an automatic suspension . . . and your team forfetis the game. That includes video review after the game is over. It does not have to be a real-time foul called. You do it, you and your team are done.
That will stop this filthy behavior.
extreme punishment will only encourage more acting to be fair. I'd rather not see players protesting or falling to the ground everytime a hand is near someones crotch.

Do people care much about the US Open Cup? I guess MLS fans might. That doesn't exclude him from USMNT games.
