Imagine if Luis Suarez was black...
he said, she said...this is very sad.....did ya'll see picture of the ghanian player kissing a brick of cash???
well never know the truth
Long but great piece I read yesterday on Suarez. Basically he headbutted a ref and made him "bleed like cow" when he was 15 and they covered it up http://espn.go.com/espn/feature/sto...nner-luis-suarez-soccer-most-beautiful-playerI love how in all of this, somehow, Liverpool lost the most
Worst of all though is that this ruling doesn't mean much, basically because of hero worship. Daniel Taylor had a good piece on Suarez yesterday talking about how in Uruguay (and probably Liverpool fans as well) the general population believes that there is a vast an interconnected conspiracy again Luis Suarez, led mostly by the British for one reason or another. The photos were doctored, his grandpa is black, it's a term of endearment, his shoulder ran into his teeth.
Suarez is so cosseted in Uruguay and by fans that he probably believes the conspiracy as well.
So this just plays into the grand narrative that everyone is out for Suarez, it's not a deterrent.
The only way to deter this fukker from doing anything else is a lifetime ban, or at least substantially lengthy.
But because he can kick a ball well and is worth a lot all will be forgiven.

So FIFA is banning dudes but who's checking them for being corrupt pieces of shyt
Could someone more up on this story explain why the Ghanaian players demanded their money early? The way I understand it, the Ghanaian football governing body owed the players money (allegedly) and they asked for an advance on the FIFA prize money to pay off those obligations?
If that's true, what exactly were the Ghanaian players owed?
Probably didnt trust the FA if it was not delivered cash, Cameroon players were about to go on strike because of payment issues. In the bonus rows between African players and FAs the players use the leverage of embarrassing the FA in a major tournament to get them to pay.Unbelievable stuff.
Don't Ghanaian players have credit cards ?
