im just giving out example for a point which u obviously miss it and u picking bones from egg.like what duke red posted,i really hope 21 behind your nick is your IQ,or else i will feel bad for treating u a idiot.

brother maxizanc okla let's stop talking about ronaldo time to give the all this rivalry a break

btw,i feel like its more about reflextion and action taken towards incoming tackle,sometimes a very good dribbler (yea ,the best at the moment,u know who i mean ) can really dodge those tackle and scored with a screamer,but thats only when they are really in good form.just like messi dribble pass 5defender.

ps: i still dont mind diving,part of the game,apply to all players without considering club.

diving is good!!

well it applies when a team really needs a result anyways...

i rate ronaldo as the better diver. he always gets the penalty.

Diving is good?? What a load of bull. It's wrong and should neevr be done irregardless of the situation.

Here we go again, a Chelski fan saying Ronaldo is a worse diver, we'll have a Man United fan saying Drogba is the better on. It'll just go round and round.

i'm just shocked evryone seems excited to discuss about F1 story that i brought than other else.. i guess the video makes everyone crazy.. lol

I think that's the problem these days. Too many people accept diving as being part of the game. Is there a difference between diving and pretending to be injured? Both are done with the intention to deceive and benefit unfairly.

Wahlau, this thread is getting VERY technical

End of the day, most of us hates diving (those of the non-contact but can fly a few meters and rolling on gound type)

The F1 example is taking the theory abit too extreme. That being said - the faster you run, the less traction / grip and stability you'll have on your feet hence it'll be easier to tumble when there is contact. How much force is need is open to interpretation .

Diving is a BIG problem and an ugly part of the game that can be stemed out IF players are better educated and the penalties more severe. It would also help if the manager do not tell you hit the deck everytime someone guards you or you're in the peno area.

anybody got comment on this?

Yes, diving should be dealt with severely. Just because you don't get caught doesn't make it right. I disagree with everything you've said on diving.

I'm 100% with you on this. Winning is everything BUT to win it in a dirty way by cheating leaves a foul taste in my mouth especially if it's my team.

im looking back at how terrible my mentality is

since u asking... IMO if lets say half of those in our society hav such mindset, we're farked.

which is why corruption exists in our world.

I'll rather lose with pride.

thread shud be better with vids.

the protugese are really gud at diving.. why r? mayb it's part of their training routine.. shame shame..
