Goodbye to a Legend (-ary Punk-Ass Bitch)

One of the best things about sports is that we can unilaterally hate people whose names don't rhyme with "Spitler". Top of my list? Cuauhtémoc Blanco, resident whining, diving jackhole for Mexico. Why? Because he spends more time pleading with the refs or diving for imaginary fouls than playing. However, he's not a complete slacker -- he also finds time to cheap shot opponents and referee's assistants (all the videos of which fing MLS deleted -- asshats). However, in his "100th" (or 97th, if you're FIFA) game for Mexico, Blanco turned in a vintage outing:

Eriksson was equally baffled to find himself under fire for leaving out Cuauhtémoc Blanco, even though the fiery forward had announced his international retirement after winning what he claimed was his 100th cap at home to Canada (though FIFA said it was officially his 97th). Whatever the figure, he played for two minutes and still got booked for diving.
