    Great video. Precisely why I don't watch it. I can't appreciate the skill, because I'm too disgusted at all the flailing and acting going on.

    Too bad, they are great athletes with great skill. As skilled as they are with the ball, they are equally skilled actors.

    And yes, the one out of a hundred that are real injuries, doesn't make up for the rest.

    Very funny video. Funny cause its true....

    I think most would agree that diving and embellishment are the biggest problems for FIFA to solve. Football is still my favorite game to watch, but I wince whenever I see a player diving and/or embellishing an injury. Something must be done to change the way it is officiated if they are to deter it. Its getting worse and worse and they need to turn the tide the other way.
