Re: Luis Suarez appretiation thread.

I dislike diving and I'm sure any football fan does, it makes me cringe when I see a player dive no matter who it is.

Who needs Messi or CR7 in the NT when you have guys like Suarez. They don't depend on systems, you can't completly mark them out and they play for their country with passion

Probably was temp, now I think its permanent because first he got banned for racial slurs then he made more and more account harassing me and Ganso.

Yeah, he was pretty aggresive towards you guys, especially.

Really undeserved.

And LOL at your sig.

I need to bring in Dr. Spencer again I see.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_reaction

Read to understand the meaning of reflex;

But here goes my own version of the incident.

Suarez is in front of the goal, the ball is headed to his right and is in eye level.

The ball is a speeding projectile.

Swapping the ball would be as natural as a swapping a charging fly.

Simply put, it was a knee jerk reflex, only people with slow reflexes would not have reacted.

The three reflexes to incoming projectiles are:

1- Hand to face reaction. (about 50% do this)
2- Swatting the projectile. (about 30% do this)
3- Ducking. (the rest 20%) do this.

People typically only do one of those, and they do them all the time.

Note that you need to be unconscious to the fact that the projectile will be headed your way . (or else goal keepers may duck all the time).

In summary,

Suarez did a reflex reaction to the incoming projectile, he had no time to think or to plan what to do. His reflex was to swat the ball. Another player might have ducked or put his hand to his face, but Suarez is a swatter.

End of story, it might be called cheating, but it just a product of human anatomy.

Dr. Spencer, out.

This end the Suarez handball discussion, don't ignore sensible posts please.

[Albiceleste]

It wasn't a reflex, he brought his hands up to swat it out of the air, it was his intention to keep the ball out of the goal with his hands, not to protect his face. You're not the be all end all of every argument.

[Sushi Master]

I think he's being sarcastic, man.

Although with the Lord you can never tell.

[Lord Spencer]

Apparently Lionel Messi is an expert on reading minds.

As I see, the box was crowded, and Suarez did not have a direct line of sight to the ball. When the ball cam at him, he probably was as surprised as anyone would be.

The amount of time he needs to make a decision is very little, read this for further info on the time needed to make accountable decisions;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_making

Since there was not time to make a decision, it is naturally a reflex reaction to an incoming projectile, I thought I already explained how there are 3 different reflex reactions to incoming projectiles. It is not like Suarez made a diving save.

Point is, 30% of players would have done the exact same thing, Suarez was successful in effectively swatting the ball out.

Notice that I did not contradict the notion that Suarez is a diving cheat, it is just that he cannot be blamed for guarding the net against Ghana when it was simply a product of human anatomy.

Thank you

Are you saying that he had no motive in swatting the ball away from the goal?

[Albiceleste]

He knew exactly what he was doing and should take full blame.

[Red Alert]

He got sent off did he not? He did the crime, he got sent off. I don't see how he "cheated."

Also, what disrespectul f*ck wants a players leg to break?

[izzy]

Hmmmm.... I thought this was an appeciation thread?

So much butt hurt behaviour.

[billy_gr]

What’s the thread’s topic again?

Right… I think he’s one of the best right now.

We all see the motive in the action, but we don't see that the action was a reflex reaction. He did indeed shove the ball out of the net, and it might as well have been fully intentional, but the situation he was in demanded a reaction, and what he did would have been done by 30% or more of the players regardless of their behavior.

In any case, handling the ball was a natural bi product of match tension and human anatomy. Regardless of the presence of a motive. In fact, the ball could have been headed to his head and he would have swatted it into goal if that was the case, but the ball went to his right and he swatted away from goal. It was not a diving save.

It does not take away anything from his cheating behavior, but constantly looking to that handball is unfair, especially when it was not fully conscious behavior.

[Lord Spencer]

The butt hurt is strong in this one.

Seriously, are you a mind reader or something?

It is infinity more dishonorable to score using handballs than to defend incoming balls using your hand, since the former is rarely caught while the latter is rarely not caught and the perpetrators, if conscious of their action know that they are probably going to be red carded and a penalty will be given.
