Wow, I just completely disagree with your sentiments within this post.
He did not say anything racist. I lived in South America and calling someone "negro" is not an insult there. Evra just took it that way. Suarez still apologized but Evra refuses to shake his hand still. Racism is only racism when the intent to insult is there.
This makes absolute no sense. I understand the fact that you're saying where Suarez is from, this may be common, but when you're living somewhere else for years, you become accustomed and on top of that should learn to comprehend saying something as inappropriate as he did. Before I even vacation in countries I try to learn the things that we do that are considered inappropriate there. This guy has been in England for years and you're going to really tell me he didn't know what he was saying was wrong?
On top of that it wasn't done in a cordial way. By all accounts it was said to him in a derogatory matter in a heated moment. And I don't believe the comment was "negro." That's what Suarez argued at the hearing. Forgive me if I don't take his word for it. The comment was supposedly more along the lines of "negrito negrito negrito." Basically taunting him saying "blacky blacky blacky." I'm sorry, but I'm pretty sure that wasn't meant to be "friendly."
Any player would do that. I would do that. If McDonagh would cover the puck with his hand in the crease in game 7 of the SCF, with 20 seconds to go, resulting in a penalty shot that is stoped by Lundqvist, we would all love McD for that. It's the desire to win and doing anything to accomplish that.
This is the only part I semi-agree with. However, his diving, constant antics, faking injury and the WC cheating is absurd. McDonagh covering the puck is one thing. He's not flopping around the ice like a dead fish half the time. Suarez literally dives and fakes injury to either draw a call or kill time, multiple times EVERY GAME. He's an embarrassment. The worst part, is that the below Gif, is rather commonplace for him and happens nearly every game.
The only bad things he did, was biting someone twice (Ottman Bakkal in Holland in 2010 and Branislav Ivanovic in England in 2013). Apart from that, he is a unique talented player who has the heart and soul of a true champion.
Finally, this. The ONLY bad things he did was biting someone TWICE. The ONLY bad thing was that he BIT A PLAYER. TWICE!
Do you know how repulsive that is. The guy not only is a moron and does an absolutely despicable action once. But he does it twice! He didn't even learn how pathetic and horrid it was after the first time. There are very few things lower then biting another human being. I can't believe you act like this is all but nothing.
Suarez is an amazing player. He's one of the best in the world and is the sole reason Liverpool fought for the title this year and that Uruguay is still alive. That being said, he has done nothing to prove his haters wrong. He is by all appearances a repulsive human being on the field. He has absolutely no shame. This guy is more then just a "do anything to win" player. He's a loose cannon with absolutely no respect for his opponent. He's a racist, a bully, a cheap shot artist and a cheating piece of scum.
