root for Italy. With the exception of 1938, when they win the Cup, the Cards win the WS. (1934, 1938, 1982, 2006)

let's be real here, EVERYONE dives in the world cup. and it's sad. these guys act, look, behave tough, but they lay down like pussies when they are in the middle of any big moment that involves physical play.

how about showing the world you are the toughest muthaphucka out there by staying on your feet and/or recovering quickly enough to maintain control and go freaking create a chance if for no other reason than to spite the sissy that just kicked you on the ankle
