  1. Well you can't say it like that if you haven't experienced, but I might agree that the football is turning to sensitive towards this 'racism campaign'. I don't know, but I always ask myself if insulting someones colour/religion is worse than insulting someones family or so, because that happens all the time on the pitch.
  2. I don't agree, I don't see how biting someone can be worse than what Aguero did tbf. It's pathetic and that alone maybe deserves 10 games, but you can't tell me that biting someone in the arm is worse than actually trying to deliberately break someone, can you? As I said, there is a problem with consistency. But I can't see anyone can argue that 10 games for biting someone is too harsh. Biting is so far removed from normal football behaviour that IMO it's uniquely disgusting and needs to be dealt with extremely harshly. Same with racism. There are lots of bad tackles but they are not the same. Don't agree and your second sentence is exactly why. The only reason the ban was given this harsh is because it's out of the norm in football. How is biting someone worse than punching somone? (Barton a la Pedersen) How is biting worse than what McCallum (spelling) tackle? How is biting someone worse than gathering force to stamp someone laying down? (Aguero) A bite like that won't make Ivanovic miss 10 games, while a tackle can make someone miss a whole season but is only dealt with a 3 game suspension? This is purely the FA wanting to make headlines and distract from the fact it's a horrible federation.

  4. 10 game ban for Suarez, but a legbreaking tackle goes unseen and a killing kung fu tackle by Aguero as well. The FA needs to take a good long look at themselves because they've just embarrassed themselves. Not saying he didn't deserve many games, but 8 games for calling someone something, than 10 games for biting someone? There's no consistency, Barton got what, like 12 games? It's embarrassing really. Not defending Barton or Suarez, but these retrospective bans needs to be given even if the refs haven't seen it. Looking like the Brazilian federation this...
  5. 2.72 on Real tonight is good value. I'd thought 2.2 would be more appropriate, like Bayern last night. Definitely worth chucking some money on IMO. The DNB at 2x money on both teams is also worth something I'd imagine.
  6. Don't agree with much there. Bayern were better and deserved to win. 4-0 wasn't really harsh. And it's not the end of an era, they've just not been very good for stretches since Christmas. Still top 3 team in the world.
  7. His partner in there wasn't too bad either They were excellent.
  8. It's amazing just like your avatar.
  9. Just puts into perspective their result against Juventus who are an amazing team.
  10. What you on? Tell me? Must be strong stuff.
  11. Alba is the most pathetic player in the world.
  12. Well apart from their left back and centre defender being the worst on the pitch, I agree that he's the third weakest link there...
  13. Ah man, disrespectful to take Muller out when he was close to the tripple double Only needed one more block.
  14. Dani Alves won't be walking tomorrow, that's for sure
  15. Feel sorry for Barta. Been criticizing him all day and that just made it even worse. Poor kid is having a mare.
  16. Screened better than Garnett there. Posted this: but didn't go through cause my internet shut down: Mike that is some good basketball screening Some good pick & roll.
  17. How is that not a free-kick? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
  18. Pedro and Messi have been worse IMO. Pedro's been a lot better than Alexis. Messi's just hobbling around like when you get an injury in Pro Evo, only you refuse to take him off because he's Messi.
  19. Pedro and Messi have been worse IMO. Messi at least tries something when he gets the ball, as for Pedro, I suggested taking him off. But no they've definitely not been worse than Alexis.
