Perfect, leave that to the other 6.5 BILLION people in the world outside of N. America. To each his own.
Diving is and always has been part of the game and while it still happens all the time, the refereeing has by and large brought it way down.

Never been a huge footy fan either, but I've got a vested interest this year as I randomly pulled Russia in our pool over here and dropped 1,000 dinars (that only works out to about 13 bucks BTW) with the chance to win 16,000.
It's also a lot of fun to drink a beer and watch the games every night with co-workers from pretty much every nation involved...the banter is priceless!

As for the hooligan fights...check out Al Jazeera English or BBC and you'll see a lot more than what the close-minded N. American force fed BS media will ever show.
