If you can sell it to the ref in the right area you might get a chance to reduce the other team to one player less, or get a shot at a goal scoring opportunity.

They flop, but they don’t roll around on the ground like they’re in a

Those are a rare occurrence. Soccer you’ll see someone roll around like they

I watch basketball just so I don't miss seeing Harden get a legitimate injury.

Agreed. Do you know where they don't flop? Women's college. BYU is good.

Girls soccer is brutal. It’s annoying because for some reason they don’t call

There’s this weird sexism where they don’t think girls can hurt each other

It also helps teammates catch their breath. In football or basketball, if you're tired & need a breather, you sub out &

"you mean they run around continuously??" - American's who have never watched a soccer game in their life.

Any sport that can end in a 0-0 tie is not worth my time.

I'm not seeing any 0-0 ties (they only list scores from 1974 on).

Hey he just said "that can end in a 0-0 tie" haha, technically the NFL could do so.

The NFL never ends in 0-0 ties.

A game in 1943. The exception that proves the rule.

That was 1943, bro.

Hey, you're the one who said "never" not me.

Sorry, basketball is not even close to the thousands of no calls in the box

lol, did you not watch that college football one? literally them determining the outcome of the game.

Lol yourself, a few terrible calls here and there. Thousands of poor no calls

A few terrible calls, most of which determined the game. Sorry, but with goal technology there isn't a way a soccer
