Why Footballers are wussies!

You have to click on the red card on the time line below the video screen to play the video. The Greece player really needs to work on his fake pain reaction time! If you watch the slow-mo replay, he doesn’t even really catch his leg, and the Greece player is like, oh yeah I have to fall down now…Ha.

I have been watching some of these games and came to the conclusion that apart from Wayne Rooney, and that crazy Zidane guy, all footballers are wussies! They flop down on ANY contact and immediately turn to the official like "He Hit me Daddy!"

Soccer players (ehem…Footballers) would never last on a Rugby Pitch, lol. I can say this because I played Rugby at UT and these footballers flop down at the slightest touch…they are like a whole field full of the best acting American Football Punters I’ve ever seen.

That being said….I have rather enjoyed watching the World Cup thus far….I just hope the US at least advances to the next round.
