Landon Donovan dove and faked injury a lot. I saw it first hand many times when he played RSL. I guess that was the start of the end for me, I really despised Donovan for doing it. I know a lot of players do it but Donovan was especially good at it.
Where Donovan left off Neymar picked up.
Neymar has taken diving to a new level, he makes me want to vomit.
Once my eyes were opened I just couldn't ignore the diving any more in the sport of soccer. I have given it up totally now. I couldn't even tell you who the last MLS Cup winner was nor the last UEFA Champions League winner.
I now watch bullfighting instead of soccer. I have to watch replays of bullfights on Facebook but you would be surprised how much content is out there. It has really been a joy to watch.
Bullfighters will get gored in the legs, bleed, have a tourniquet placed above their wound, and will keep performing until the bullfight has been completed. It really is amazing to watch.
Meanwhile I imagine Neymar will be rolling around on the ground somewhere, fake crying.
