Italy - World Cup Mediocrity and Cheating
Well, I've listened to the moronic pundits dissing Zidane, and not one has twigged that such a distinguished player would not act as he did without good reason; and we have some evidence as to what that reason might have been, evidence not inconsistent with the culture of shirt pulling, elbowing, holding and play acting that has been the hallmark of an otherwise less than ordinary team in this world cup - ask any Australian. The best team won... the team best at cheating, that is.

Exactly. Well said.
Although, you can't really expect anything else from the land of Machiavelli, can you?
I have a well thumbed copy of 'The Prince'. I believe Machiavelli would be firmly against cheating in sport on pragmatic grounds, and cheating in politics is an oxymoron, niet?
