That is a horrible comparison.

No sport flops like soccer.

It's not even close.

All sports flop...sure, but soccer, particularly MEN'S soccer, is on another level.

Its not a fucking lazy argument. I played soccer for 14 years, i'm not a soccer hater. But the fucking flopping in soccer is beyond annoying. I will say that the US teams have never been as ridiculous as other teams when it comes to flopping around. And as for the NBA, yeah thats a flop fest too. Thats why i don't bother watching much NBA.

In the NBA, they stand in there, take the charge, and it either works or it doesn't. Then they get up and move on.

THEY DON'T WRITHE AROUND ON THE GROUND LIKE A LITTLE GIRL FOR FIVE MINUTES PRETNEDING TO BE HURT.

Then don't watch. Soccer fans don't really care if anyone else watches.

Bobby Wood is Denard Robinson in comparison to Jozy Altidore being Nick Sheridan.

Wood has cemented his spot in my eyes.

As a former ref I didn't put up with that crap. If it was obvious the guy was faking, I didn't hesitate to yellow card that. It's ridiculous.

This team is far from perfect, but Columbia is #3 ranked team in the world and we played them evenly, with poor officiating at that. I like our young talent and that is a reflection on JK building a team.
