    Busted cheek? Really? I guess you're trying to be in situation that isn't funny at all, thanks Zlatan being the jerk that he has always been a player suffered a skull fracture. Now my team is going to be out for blood because of this and I doubt MLS will do anything about this. It's a damn shame too.

    I'm not seeing clear intent on Zlatan's part on this occasion.

    The same cannot be said of the studs-up challenge by El Munir on Joe Corona earlier in the match.

    I wish the guy a speedy recovery but the outage over this is decidedly selective.

    Outrage even. Zlatan hit him with a forearm which wasn't in an unnatural position. Whether he put unnecessary force I do not know. Only Zlatan knows. THE disco also can't possibly know, so they are unlikely to suspend.

    So now we know what happens if a Ferrari crashes into a Fiat.

    FC Cinci is the Pinto in this analogy, right?

    This thread may be the prefect opportunity to reignite the discussion on the Soviet Era auto industry.

    DisCo has ruled no punishment for Zlatan.

    Or Zlatan's 1981 Yugo roots, which he refuses to acknowledge.

    Huh?

    With a Bosnian Muslim father and Croatian Catholic mother, Sweden was a good place to be in 1991.

    A joke.

    And roots, I said. I know he was born in Sweden. Perhaps I should have said heritage. And he was born in 1981, not 1991, if that's what you meant. Bosnia and Croatia were very much part of Yugoslavia then. And a quick check of Wikipedia indicates that Yugo parts were made in both Bosnia and Croatia.

    Yes but there was the small matter of ethnic cleansing in 1991, which is why I said Sweden was a good place to be for someone from a mixed marriage.

    And I have absolutely no idea what that has to do with my joke.

    You know I was referring to the car, the Yugo, right? Contrasting that with his assertion to currently being a Ferrari?

    Ferrari’s are superior plain and simple ! If a
    Ferrari rolls by a stupid small insignificant moped and it crashed and is totaled then whose fault is that??!!
