5. Well, he might have pulled a hammie...

but there's really too much air-time in that flop for a ham-string pull. I know - not only did I play soccer in my youth, I've got restless leg syndrome along with some nerve damage so night-time leg cramps can be quite entertaining to the cats on the bed.

(6 oz of high-quinine tonic water, a bit of lime, and some bitters before bed minimizes the results if I feel a bad night coming on)

I'd give him a 6 if he tried out for the Olympics Men's Gym team.

6. A coworker says that this is why he likes women's soccer

As he put it: they play hard from start to finish with none of the crybaby bullshit.


Not long ago I saw a picture of one women's soccer player still on the field and playing with her face bloodied.

Meanwhile, the canary in the vid above can barely endure the pressure of his socks on his calves.

10. It's a beautiful operatic death scene.

Of course, once the official makes his final decision, the player bounces up and starts running again.:


Edit to add operatic death scenes

11. Equip the officials with a handy firearm to put these wounded animals out of their misery. n/t

12. Proof positive that drama queen isn't a gender specific term.
