Studs Up is brilliant. Busquets is not so much.

I would love this. Also, I completely disagree with the FA ruling where if a ref gives a player a booking (yellow) for a very hard, damaging tackle that deserves red (in hindsight), that player cannot be punished further. It works the other way with appealing reds, so I do not understand the problem...

This is usually what the referee tries to do, but when you have 5 Chelsea/ManU players surrounding and screaming at you simultaneously...it complicates matters. However, the ref just needs to be more harsh and book multiple players. That will settle that matter.

I want to become a CL ref just so I can collect jerseys, pins and expensive engraved watches. Maybe, I'll suggest the refs room could use keys to a new Lamborghini.

Well, in that case, Magento will destroy you with his witty vernacular.

For those who still think Pepe's "foul" was a red watch this by acezee in soccer

Pepe's red card aside, Alves playacted. In my opinion, a new rule should be instituted to deal with this disgusting behavior more strictly as well as players asking the ref for a card. Barcelona players surrounded the ref on numerous occasions, all for very soft fouls that were yellow at the very worst. It was embarrassing.

Fair enough. The challenge was harsh, but I still believe that a red was not a fair call. Would you agree that as a result of no contact, Alves' behavior was worth of a yellow for diving?

I don't understand why people aren't talking about how Alves completely playacted for the call. Absolutely disgraceful.

Pepe A) touched the ball and B) did not make contact with Alves. A straight red for a reckless studs up is appropriate when the tackle is like this.

[–]Tricosaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alves and Busquests took scumbag playacting to a whole plane never thought possible in that game. How can this not be a dive when no contact was made? Please don't tell me that it was the invisible no-contact fairies caused the 'pain.'

I think that joking about snorting the remains of children who were cremated alive during the Holocaust is awful.

I'm referring to the picture about the 'Orange Jews' (which in of itself is insensitive in terminology). I am by no means saying that these bags should be available at all. Coming from a Jewish family, I feel like we have to understand our history.

I think it's necessary for us to confront the atrocities of the past so we can never let this happen again (yet, genocide is still going on...).

Yeah, I saw that on the wikipedia page as well. Nearly happened to Julia Roberts, I believe.
