8. I agree with you, but I also think the FA is being intentionally unfair to Suarez

I don't think EBJT should face criminal charges, and I don't think suspending Suarez for 8 games is in any way reasonable. I can't help feeling like the FA had Sepp Blatter's ignorant mug in mind and decided to make a strong statement against racism, and rather than making that statement against England's captain, they chose Suarez. I won't be at all surprised if the FA drops the Terry investigation, either on the grounds that he was found guilty of a criminal charge and has been sufficiently punished, or that he was found innocent in court.

Mostly I just can't stand Patrice Evra for acting like a spoiled little crybaby jerk during the 2010 World Cup. What self-respecting full-grown adult professional acts like that? Where does he get the nerve to ever walk out onto a pitch again?
