It just does not strike me as exciting or entertaining in the least bit. Sometimes I watch the womens Us team, because they are hotter than shit, but even that gets old.

how about basketball players "flopping" in hopes of drawing a charge. or football players exaggerating the effects of a facemask or pass intereference to make sure that a ref sees the penalty. batters fling themselves out of the box on an inside pitch to exaggerate the placement of the pitch. faking occurs in all sports. it increases the likelyhood (to some degree) that a call goes in favor of the faker, so i'm pretty sure it will continue.
