There will always be Klinsi, the 
Chaplin/Olivier of The Dive, one of the greatest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxnmC8oYPNY
I think he trained with the best of them, the world-famous Cliff Divers of Acapulco.
The woman in that video even calls his dives "triple sow couws."

'Who has the fun.. 
  ..is it always a man with a gun...? 
    Someone must have told him if you work too hard... you can sweat"

The thing that makes it hard for me to watch a lot of soccer are the dives...low scoring I can handle if it’s still a tight game, but this kind of stuff is the antithesis of sportsmanship, to say nothing of entertainment:

And is it just me or does Maradonna wake up every morning in a dumpster?

me & sport don't get on & me & football get on least of all but I do watch the 'big' games if only to remind me why I don't follow it :)
It's really quite something when your own fans boo you at the end.
 
Highlights tonight for me was the studio commentary
Just before the second half:
"Welcome back to (blah blah blah) where England are playing like drains"
 
& as it finished he said something like "England remain unbeaten, their track record remains intact"

If England beat Slovenia, then we (England) are through to the next round, no matter what.  But on this evening's performance, that's a very big "if".
