Football Fever - Fairness?

I was trying to memorize my Contract Law notes. Hell, it took me 10 minutes just to memorized what's the meaning of CONSIDERATION just because a bunch of people can't give the definition in simple English and to make it sound bombastic, they twist and turn the words to give a bombastic definition.

Of course me, still being bitter over Germany's unfair red card given by the asshole referee, become irritated when France got a red card. And the past few days, as far as i can remembered, Brazil and Switzerland got a red card each. So i'm thinking the giving of red card has become a stupid trend among referees in WORLD CUP 2010 because in these matches, according to the commentators it's unfair and unjustified. Maybe i should illustrate to the referee what amounts to red card, by me ATTACKING HIM and PUNCHING him if i was a football player.

I personally think that the giving of RED CARDS is a cheap publicity by referees to be acknowledged in the headlines of newspaper, even though it's bad publicity. They won't appear in headlines if they give good referring compare to giving a bad one. A bad publicity is better publicity than no publicity at all.

Anyway, there's nothing to be proud of winning a match where you are playing against 10 men where the 11th player got an UNJUSTIFIED RED CARD. Sure, you are lucky to win but you can't say you are so great. Would you have win if you were playing against 11 players? It's like playing against a handicap when you are perfect.

Then you have Maradona and his famous World Cup handball. I was having an argument with a friend on this matter because he thinks Maradona is good even if he cheated and that Argentina deserved to in the World Cup despite the handball. And at that time, there was political dispute between Argentina and England so it was a further sweet victory when Argentina won in football against England. So Maradona is a great player, that doesn't justify his cheating. Great players don't cheat.

What pisses me off about this Maradona's handball is that only recently did he confessed he KNEW it was a handball and he intentionally did it. Hand of God you tell me? More of a Hand of Cheater.

People who cheat during exam, do you think they deserve to pass? NO.

People who use plastic surgery to look pretty, do you think they deserve to be complimented on their beauty? NO.

Athletes who cheated by taking steroids, do they deserved to win? NO.

Cheating may go on without being unnoticed but if YOU KNOW YOU CHEATED, at least have the DECENCY not to parade around or feel proud of yourself over your accomplishment which was obtained with cheating. Your accomplishment was never achieved via FAIR PLAY.
