[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good to see Neymar the drama Queen with fouls back playing![/quote]

This is such a poor bandwagon take. If you really watch the man play, you'll see that he's one of the hardest hit, most targeted guys on the field. He's perpetually taking hard tackles, fouls, and card worthy take downs. No wonder his ankles, knees and legs are barely standing. And he is the #1 target bc of what he produces. Neymar is not my favorite player by any means but I can appreciate how physical the game is for him. There's no way he can play for much longer. [/quote]

I say that having watched the women play with blood dripping down their faces and rolling around with the dramatics of Neymar and other male players. [/quote]

Dude, I'm sorry but women's soccer is just not the same as men's. It has nowhere near the same speed, strength or power of the men's game. Women's soccer is slow. Painfully slow. Are there injuries? Of course. But to argue that men - and particular - Neymar don't get injured in a game that is 10x faster is just nonsense. No, you do not watch the same game as the rest of us, and the take above is rightfully identified as just a bandwagon observation. [/quote]

Believe the point here was not about injuries, but how much more often the men fake them.[/quote]

You are so right. No one is debating about the athleticism of men vs. women except one person. There are entire memes dedicated to the histrionic dramatics of the men trying to get a foul called or yellow card issued. There are also memes and videos of women not doing the same and yet playing on with blood running down their face.

Some people cannot take a joke or miss sarcasm entirely. +100 for your comment.[/quote]
