Yeah, Chompy is dirty as fuck. I don't even know how he's still allowed to play after biting three motherfuckers, but here we are.

Wat. rofl.
i think i follow the distinction, albeit a subtle one
the most egregious 'cheating' can be in soccer is diving repeatedly
Thats still the same as against the rules and you get carded if the ref catches you.
The repeatedly part is key. It's not many players, but it's some; we saw it 5 times in 25min on Wednesday. No one's ever caught and reprimanded thoroughly for repeated embellishment and diving. Bookings happen, what, under half the time. Other times and more often it's a play-on, a cheap free kick, or an ever cheesier penalty.
One can less blatantly handle, whether a mistake of timing or judgment, thus the subtle separation. There was no mistake in Suarez' behavior.
Where's dat vydia tech when y'all need it?
Are people really surprised in 2017 that Luis Suarez is a cheat?
I imagine there is very little surprise -- more just the typical moaning about egregious diving in the sport's top club competition. It's additionally annoying when such antics feature so prominently during what was otherwise an exciting and historic match.
The main reason they don't give a shit about the sensible option of having replays is because each controversy generates so much attention. Who doesn't remember Suarez biting someone at the World Cup
Sonny hat trick in the face of the racist fans.
Open play goal from Janssen.
But Kane injured his ankle again so here's hoping we still get top 4.
Season's over. Go home everyone.
Herrera sent packing at 36 minutes in the Man U - Chelsea match.
The coaches were about to go at it as well. I hope the stadium blows up to the Spurs can win the Premier League.
Mourinho is bitter enough to make this match go to pens and win it there. He's so mad at Chelsea he can't even see straight.
He's been relatively tame at United, but this match is so Mourinho and I love it.
I don't see Man U getting in the net. Chelsea's gonna win.
I'm not going to lie. The potential for an NLD FA Cup final makes me nauseous.
FA Cup Semi-Finals:
Chelsea v. Tottenham
Arsenal v. Man City
Welp.
Time to prove ourselves.
Leicester (agg 3-2) and Juventus (agg 3-0) through to UCL quarterfinals today.
Leicester, Dortmund, and Barcelona overturn first-leg deficits. N'Golo Kante took a trip back to the Midlands to support his former teammates; seeing him smiling at the end was great.
Leicester and Spurs have both made it farther in the CL than Arsenal over the past 7 years, even though Arsenal has qualified for it more often.
