Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse... but you take a boat in the air that you don't love... she'll shake you off just as sure as the turn of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down... tells you she's hurting before she keels. Makes her a home.  -Mal

That guy deserves a real punch to the face for that move.
And I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling.

He was fined , Turkey was eliminated and Brazil took the Cup .
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivaldo#International_career
His early performance at the tournament was spoiled by his play-acting in the group match against Turkey.[22] In the closing stages of the match, with the ball out of play, Turkish defender Hakan Ünsal kicked a ball towards Rivaldo, who was waiting at the corner flag. The ball struck his thigh, but Rivaldo fell to the ground clutching his face. The referee sent the Turkish player off with a second yellow card. After a video review, Rivaldo was fined 11,670 Swiss Francs by FIFA, 1,670 of which were for "costs"

( as far as I'm concerned there should be post-match video reviews and any obvious simulations should be Red Cards at the least . Perhaps multiple games for repeat offenders )

It's nice here with a view of the trees
Eating with a spoon?
They don't give you knives?
'Spect you watch those trees
Blowing in the breeze
We want to see you lead a normal life
