pretending you're injured to give your team time to breathe and restructure is the oldest trick in the book.

yeah, a trick the Mexicans basically invented!

I just noticed they started the 2nd-half clock at zero, rather than the 45th minute. I can understand why, but I've never seen it done like that before.

yeah, mexican broadcasts always do it like that.

Starting recently, or how far back? I've watch plenty of broadcasts on channel 14 and don't recall seeing that.

Univision, Telemundo, and TV Azteca have always done as far as I can remember.

Maybe, I've been too toasted by the 2nd half to remember noticing. Especially during World Cup play.

WTF? Are you kidding me? How does the ref keep letting the Mexican players basically attack the US players after play has stopped?

I don't know why you're still getting worked up over this officiating. I wrote it off as a joke much earlier.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

Nice goal. Maybe some of the US players should go drag the guy laying on the ground up by his head.
