I should go onto the all of the basketball threads and complain about charging calls since I don't watch a lot of the sport and can't tell when a defender is planted or moving and interfering with the offensive player who has a lane to the basket.
Or the football threads and complain about pass interference since I can't tell how much contact is allowed, or how much the defender can obstruct the path of a receiver.
Or I can just shut up and admit I don't follow those sports close enough to tell the subtlety that sometimes varies in plays like that. |
Do you feel a little more superior now?
Flopping is derided in every sport here. Soccer is only special because it's somehow accepted and people mock you for "not knowing the game" if you don't like it.
