Glad to know I'm not the only one (Actually I was kind of worried I might offend you and the other soccer fans on my flist :P).
I honestly think all the diving will stop me from ever really watching pro-soccer. I've watched it live a few times (my sister and uncle play) and haven't hated it. I just don't watch sports that often. But see these so called professionals rolling around on the ground like someone just tried to kill them makes me want to flip the channel faster than anything else.
Actually I remember hearing about a commercial/video during the last big FIFA games that was called something like "Training with the Italian Team" (I think it was Italy, could have been another team) and when you watched the video it was of all of the team members doing dives, and rolling around in fake pain :P What does that tell you.
