In Today's Least Surprising News...

FIFA revealed that, shockingly, soccer players were taking dives in the World Cup and feigning injuries.

'Fifty-eight per cent of the players who were treated on the pitch during the 2006 World Cup eventually turned out not to be injured,' confirmed FIFA in a statement.
Wow. I'm glad it only took them 4 months to do the research and compile a report saying this. I could have told you this after watching this Cristiano Ronaldo video below. This is an even better video but Youtube won't let me post it.

  1. Fake injuries and diving players are the biggest reason why soccer has NO CREDIBILITY in the USA.

    We value athletes who continue playing DESPITE their injuries (real and imagined).

  2. I could have told FIFA a few second after the foul if they were diving or not. Glad they're still hard at work at cracking down. Only 3.5 more years to fix this problem.
