Now that that is done with until next year.

It's Gallentine's Day today. In celebration of it, we'll snack on Cheddar Cheese and Tortellini.

LMAO!  Now, this could perhaps be interpreted several ways, but I see it as a disagreement over the definition of "football".  How far off am I?

It’s called “diving”, an execrable practice that’s infected the game  “ ‘Diving’ is an attempt by a player to gain an unfair advantage by falling to the ground and, often, feigning injury to give the impression that a foul has been committed. Dives are often used to exaggerate the amount of contact made during a challenge. ” so LBO’s gif was v funny

oops, nearly forgot…

SNATCH!

Thanks for the explanation.  Though I favor "soccer" over "American football" - as a youth sport and from a spectator perspective -  I wasn't aware of this phenomenon.

There are some better ones - much better - but they were either marginally political or more-than-marginally politically incorrect.

Here we are once again celebrating Valentines Day. Here's a suggestion. Take your Valentine to ride a Ferris Wheel. Take a box of Cream-Filled Chocolates with you.
