Sticks and Stones?

Luis Suarez, who seems to be the Rasheed Wallace of soccer, has been suspended from his Liverpool FC team for racially abusing an oppenent in October. The suspension is for 8 games.

I am glad to hear that there are no longer abusive taunts, chants and jeers occurring at English futbol games.

You'd think that Sudaco would know better...

Then I read that John Terry is being criminally charged for comments made to an opposing player in a game?!

The NFL better rethink their plans to have games in London. If they will criminally charge Terry, the captain of the national team, what the heck would they do to Ndamukong Suh?

I wasn't aware Terry was up on criminal charges (it is possible), but he is being charged by the FA for what he allegedly said to Anton Ferdinand, same as Suarez was charged for what he said to Patrice Evra.

Evra is also the subject of an FA complaint since in his testimony he admitted using some not-so-nice language to Suarez.

john-terry-racism-criminal-charges I read somewhere that there was no FA suspension because it was in the criminal courts.

Mr. Terry is not having a good month. Terror-John-Terry-family-footballers-home-attacked-raiders-plays-Premier-League-game The article says private security chased away the home invaders. Good thing he can afford private security, because if you defend your home in England, you are likely to be criminally charged yourself.
