The reaction to diving is perpetual, & NOT NEW discussion despite the recent conclusion that we just now don't like it.

Most oppose it. Alarming & frustrating when others defend it.

Can we just talk about the game? It seems like you watch a game quietly and just wait for a dive so you can come on here and spout off about it.
Why don't you follow the topic, I was telling others whining about diving that it's second nature in the sport and not to whine about it. Maybe if you read more and gave less cue card responses to people who say things you disagree with you'd make a little more sense.

Yeah it was a pathetic dive, but Pepe took himself out of the game with his own stupidity. Germany is not winning this cause of that one terrible dive (which Mueller should have recieved a yellow for). They are outclassing Portugal in every way up to this point.

Ok wow.

Don't know if they've mentioned this in your broadcast, but the Finnish PBP guy mentioned that Germany built their own high-end practice facility in Brazil, complete with housing etc.

Some countries have a little more resources to spend than others

What's cool is their turning it into an orphanage and a football academy after the tournament.

Lol Burrows write that for you ? Made enough sense.

Yes and people have complained about it cause the security roadblocks are making it hard for people to get around their own town. Germans are trying to adjust this and make security either less or in a different area.

I am following topic, there's been little diving this tournament. It's been an excellent World Cup.

I bet. I'd perhaps care about grilling you if I haven't grown up in a football family who are used to this sportsmanship.. and that's the essence of second nature, even the fans don't seem to think anything of it, just like NHL fans don't think much of these faceoff games officials play in the NHL. If I was one of those whiners, I'd have quit watching many years ago. It is what it is.
