"that being said, i think ronaldo dived maybe once this game?"

dude you must have been watching a different game, he had maybe 5 patent and ludicros dives

I'm not denying my displeasure is partly due to the England game. But its also partly due to the Dutch game and also partly due to the fact that Ronaldo has no morals whatsoever.

that's funny specially because I read the other day english fans complaining about Gerrard's dives. Henry also complained about diving and now look at him against Spain and today.
Stop overreacting.

My .02...

1) Portugal looked totally inept attacking. With the exception of Ronaldo who had a number of good runs, no one really did anything. Pauleta was totally useless. They only created a couple good chances and had poor finishing.

2) Ribery is everywhere. I'm pretty sure they cloned him and there is actually two of Ribery on the field at all times.

3) Ronaldo is a [censored] baby.

4) Portugal dives more than any team I've seen. They're worse than Italy.

That's ridiculous. I'm sure he's just trying to do whatever he can to help his team win. If the referees aren't going to call him on it, so what? Yeah, it looks stupid and mostly blatant, but saying the guy has "no morals" because of it is retarded.

What stops the vast majority of other players diving in such a ridiculous and blatent fashion? Though you could nit pick and say ethics.

In case you didnt realise, regardless of if the ref calls him up on it, diving equals cheating.

So yell at the refs who won't call it rather than the people who are doing it. If the refs start calling it, the players will stop doing it. Simple as that.

This is not a counter arguement to the assertion that RC has no morals. If anything the fact that refs dont punish diving and yet the vast majority of players still dont dive so blatently as RC just casts his lack of charachter into even more stark relief.
