Is there still no world cup thread? (the sequel)


Tale

Recommended Posts

I said "Banzai!", not "Seppuku", my dear Nippon.

 

Off-topic: I once met a fellow who claimed to practise the sword stroke of the assistant in this rather quaint ceremony every morning. He said whenever he did he imagined that he was cutting off the head of his best friend. So... I asked him who his best friend was - he answered his girlfriend was his best friend. I then asked him what his girlfriend thought of that. I don't remember what he answered, but he completely failed to see the connection.

 

In all fairness, the guy probably had a social disorder.

 

Nonetheless, the bizarre obsession and reverence some people have for this weird suicide ritual never ceases to amaze me.

 

On topic: And Greece is through. There is no God.

Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.

So Suarez faces a max of 24 matches, hm.  I think he'll end up with 6.

Why ban him? Just have him play in a mouth collar, like the ones that you put on camels. The mere humiliation should be enough.

Think that'd be illegal headgear.

I think he's just teething.  Would it be against FIFA regulations to let him carry one of these during matches?

I'm guessing Suarez gets away with a three match penalty.

 

Am i the only who wants him to continue to play? The level of drama that character creates is just too juicy to let go.

By way of comparison, Johan Le Roux got an 18 month ban from rugby, a full contact sport, for biting- and that was before the current PG13 rugby era of no rucking etc and was his first offence. At this point they really have to throw the book at Suarez, it isn't an isolated incident and he still does it because there haven't been enough consequences.

If you think about it for a moment, though, watching some idiot bite someone then roll around then stop the game for 5 minutes isn't exactly 'entertaining'. Especially if you care about the football.

 

Out of the World Cup would be the least they can do.

That's why I reckon they'll chicken out and just give him three matches. Zoraptor is right though. He ought to be up for the sledge hammer.

Boateng and Muntari sacked from the Ghana team, interesting.  Had heard they were misbehaving before.
