I was watching the England/Croatia World Cup Soccer game today and all I could do was laugh at the player about how much they cry and how animated they get over every single call that happens in the game. These players are comparable to prison criminals who all say they never committed a crime and are innocent.
If you look at all other professional sports, none of this stuff is tolerated at which the level it is during a soccer game. In baseball if you even argue balls/strikes with an umpire for more than about 15 seconds you will be ejected from the game. In the NFL players try to argue with the refs over disputed calls and immediately get 15yd unsportsmanlike penalties assessed against the team which almost always leads to points by the opposition. NBA officials hand out technical fouls and ejections like buttered popcorn at the new movie that just came out. Soccer players get away with way to much on the field when it comes to the refs and it ruins the fan experience.
They routinely chest bump and make contact with the refs and even though they get a yellow or red card it seems to rarely punish the team enough to make it even matter. I saw players from England today literally complain every 3 min about some call like they were getting robbed on the field while leading 1-0 for most of the game. I guess this is why they are soccer players in the first place! They are too slow for track, can’t shoot or dribble, too soft to play real football, no eye hand coordination to hit a 90mph fastball and can’t skate and chew gum at the same time. Soft cry babies! No wonder I have never been a real soccer fan, they cry about everything and when they actually do commit a fowl they act like they didn’t even touch anyone.
I understand this is the first or second most watched sport in the world because they play this game in every corner of the globe but all this cry baby stuff makes fans like me who may have just turned the corner to watch soccer because of the FIFA World Cup to become turned off. At this point I can’t wait until the World Cup is over and these wanna be athletes can go back to sacking groceries while the rest of the world gets ready to watch some real sports! NFL Football is only 3 weeks away.

International soccer makes soccer look so bad. Its amazing how every play knows how to fall and grab the shin in one motion. They should make a rule that if you fall down and don't get up you have to be substituted or sit on sideline for 2 minutes. That would fix things quickly.

i agree with your thoughts the soccer rules are not so strict that's why players behave like this, even in cricket if a player argue with umpire then ICC deduct 50% of their match fees.

Well, my friend fascinates me football I spend all day watching games, even football game what happens is that there are players who are figure and the referees tolerate insults and bad taste, but not all referees who tolerate that because There are some that just see the player's intention sanctions, I remember when Cristiano Ronaldo pushed the referee and sanctioned by 5 dates.
That's why I say not all referees tolerate players, sometimes some parties are yellow, greetings.

I think football is very risky game, all the players have high temper so that time they can't control themselves , then there activites looks like baby and they forget to obey the referee and then many accidents happens, otherwise nothing to say i was England supporter and was very excited yesterday like the players, so best of luck to other team.

It’s so true, there is a culture of whining in soccer that has been around forever and is only getting worse. I get pulled into the allure of soccer once every four years and to be perfectly honest, once my pool is squashed I check out. Lol. I can tolerate the whining to some extent but what blows me away is the level of disrespect shown toward the officials. If an NFL player did that he would be screwed and his team would be penalized. Thank god we are only three weeks away. I have been Jonesing for some smash mouth “real” football big time!!

There is no doubt that it also influences who the player who claims or which team is claiming, in many cases the "big stars" are tolerable and always their claims or claims pass without being reprimanded. As there are many teams which get aids from the referees, it seems to me that this sport is not completely fair. Yes, they behave like whiners.

Eh, fair points. But getting pissed at the referee is not exclusive to soccer.
Ever seen Tim Duncan's face when he was called for a foul? Ever seen Mike D'Antoni on the sidelines during NBA games? Ever seen Manu Ginobili flop to get foul calls?
Let's switch sports. Have you never seen baseball managers and players get in umps' faces for what they perceive to be bad calls? Or seen coaches and players on the sidelines get ticked off for a phantom pass interference call? I've done my fair share of lip-reading.
Soccer has a problem with reffing authority, but to make it sound like it's only a soccer problem, that's nonsense.

Soccer is definitely more of a drama queen sport. It's doubtful it will ever take hold in the US unless they find a way to break up the play so they can insert commercials somehow. Football, baseball, and basketball, and NASCAR all have deadtime whether it be time outs, time in between innings, pitching changes, pauses between quarters and halftime, etc. Soccer just keeps going so there is no real way to insert 30 second commercials as there is in most other American sports. So until television stops making most of their revenue off of commercials soccer will have difficulty penetrating the US market unless we get a flood of soccer loving immigrants changing the demographic makeup of the country substantially.

I agree about them being crybabies. FIFA should put an end to this clownery through rule chances. But could it be that since soccer is a pretty slow sport, this is tolerated because there's some potential for entertainment in sideshows like this. :D
