Honestly when i saw the pictures i couldn't believe it. I thought it was a trickery of the photographer or camera but after finding out that this is not his first time i had to agree with everyone that the man is a biter. Which got me thinking, why does he do so? I was asking the guys at work if there was any medical condition for it. They said it probably is the way he knows how to fight back when someone annoys him. I don't know if that is true but i personally think a slap is better than a bite. For God's sake he is a grown ass man and i think he is married. I can just imagine how sad his family feels right now.
Then Adidas dropped him from their endorsement deal and i have said that if and when i decide to get my gym gear i am never getting adidas. Why? I don't get all the dropping of stars that all these companies do when the stars get into trouble. I know no one would agree with me but i feel that if when the going was good and you decided that this person was worthy of endorsing your brand, you should stick to them. Why? Because that person is human, he or she is not above flaws. The brand itself is not perfect. I would respect any brand who has an endorsement deal with a troubled star that does not drop the star immediately. It is better in my opinion to let the person finish the contract and they should not renew it. This is my own opinion anyway.
Well, he has been banned for 4 months and 9 international matches. For more information on his ban, please continue reading...

I am so sorry for his family and even him because i think he has some issues that need to be hashed out. I hope he comes back stronger and better and less bitey.

LOL I love this post. Something about this whole situation cracks me up, especially the pictures.
ReplyDeleteBut on a more serious note, I think Suarez would benefit from a psych eval. It is highly unusual for a grown man to use biting as his first line of defence/attack.
A shame about the ban too. It's going to hurt Uruguay's chances in this world cup as he's their principal scorer, unless someone else steps up to the plate.
You are not serious o....lol. I think he would benefit from a psych evaluation too. I recently read that he said 'he tripped and fell on the italian guy'. I don't know if i believe him sha. Uruguay should win their matches and advance in the world cup o so that the match ban can reduce small....
