Why Diving Makes Soccer Great - In defense of soccer's biggest villains. By Austin Kelley

The thing about the floppers could be taken care of with one rule change. If you go out of the game you're out for ten minutes, then the ref can let you back into the game. This will allow for proper medical care for those who are going out of the game. If you're really hurt, the manager can replace you on the field with a substitution. The ten minutes will discourage teams and players to dive because it will leave your team a man down for a significant part of the game. But as a recent New Yorker article on FIFA's organization reported, unless the bosses get richer, nothing's going to change.
