OT: OMG - Suarez accused of "biting" again

[Pudge]

What a bizarre legacy to have when you are as good as he is. (of course, the other side are the Italians - "Play Acting Center" ) This will be a fun sidebar.

He clearly bit him, there is something really wrong with him.

So weird. He's disturbed

 

[boog204]

he's a brilliant player, but clearly deranged. that's the third time he's being busted for biting another player. very strange.

Liverpool are my favorite team. They will have to get rid of him now if he doesn't get a permanent ban from the sport. What is that definition of insanity again? Something about repeating an act and expecting a different result? He is obviously insane. Magical player and stark raving mad person. They will never be able to compensate for losing him. First Gerard slips against Chelsea and we lose the title. Now this. What else can possibly top this?

I don't know what Liverpool has to do (or will do for that matter), but he's definitely not getting a lifetime ban. FIFA can ban him for a number of matches or for a set calendar amount of time. But the maximum is 2 years I believe. Forget the number of match ban limit

It will be harsher than his last suspension though. But I don't think he'll be out for a whole calendar year even.

He will not get a lifetime ban. I could see FIFA, Liverpool and FA coming to some agreement on a more enduring suspension, but he won't be banned for life.

Wright Thompson has written some really really good stuff over the years. I usually enjoy his pieces.

I did just look it up and the maximum penalty FIFA is allowed to impose is 24 match, 2 year ban.

BTW, Suarez's post match reaction is priceless: "Stuff happens on the pitch".

I could be wrong, but I was listening SiriusFC and someone said that any FIFA suspension would just apply to international play.

That is correct. If the FA wanted to do anything additional it would be their own call.

Thanks! One Liverpool fan called in, he was like "he's a deranged maniac, but he is OUR deranged maniac!". LOL

I can't argue with that. I confess, I really enjoy watching him play. And my morbid dark side now wants to see if he'll bite a guy for a 4th time...

Argentina-Nigeria putting on a good show right now.

Are you kidding me? I want him to keep playing in the World Cup just to watch the circus.

Statistically, you are more likely to be bitten by Suarez if you are playing against his team than bitten by a shark if you are swimming in the ocean.

That's pretty funny.
