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

Ah, he is also suspended from all football activities for four months. That's more like it.

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

 

That's still too light.  Then again maybe not.  Misses 9 EPL matches, 3 CL matches, maybe some other cup matches too.  Can't even attend games too

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. 

 

 

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.

 

 

They banned the guy for 4 months it seems.

 

Now back good sportmanship such as slapping, diving, cussing and breaking legs.

Nah, pretty sure there's to be cussing allowed in any physical contact sport.  What they should crack down on is the grappling in the box

 

This was pretty funny though, has his hands locked. http://gfycat.com/SevereFoolhardyCuttlefish

Can't imagine many clubs having an interest in buying him from Liverpool anymore now.

 

Then again, you never know.

There will always be interest in a guy that talented, no matter how many screws he has loose.

 

Also, GO STARS & STRIPES!

Germany are dominating this game. The can't not score in this game.

The longer Portugal/Ghana stays scoreless the better.  Preferably it stays scoreless for its duration.

Jermaine Jones just got fouled by the referee.  That was definitely yellow card worthy.  The ref should card himself.  :lol:

 

Edit:  Woot!  Portugal up 1-0 on Ghana.  Portugal is so insanely down on goal differential that they would need to win by an insane score like 5-0 or have the US get thoroughly whipped by Germany, or some combination thereof to edge the US for a spot in the knockout stages.

    So far so good for the US of A, scoreless with Germany at the half and Portugal leading Ghana 1-0.

    Germany scores.

    GHANAH!!!

     

    Yes, yes, yes!

    Gah!  Germany goes up 1-0 and Ghana equalizes with Portugal.  Now things get a lot more nervous for the Stars & Stripes.

    Bye, bye, Ghana. We hardly knew ye.

    Woot!  Portugal score and are up 2-1.  I can't believe I just cheered for something Ronaldo did, but there you go.

    Hilarious. Ronaldo could've actually scored 5-6 times but he wasted them all.

    That was a boring game.

    Well, the US might have lost to Germany, but they're through to the knockout stages.
