No, not in a perfect world, but does and it is expected, except by for soccer... specifically soccer in the US. Around the world there are worse things yelled at the refs. <BR/><BR/>Heck there was just a goal. I'm sure it gets pretty loud on the field. Maybe Donovan was just being polite and speaking up to say, "well played ol' chap."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437561489188679737.post-22228015809171885052008-04-23T21:58:00.000-07:002008-04-23T21:58:00.000-07:00The best player the US has ever produced, and more...The best player the US has ever produced, and more than half the soccer-watching population here hates him.

Ianni probably got away with too much, but then it's the referee you talk to and not the player. What kind of example does this set for kids watching Donovan? It's unprofessional, and he should have taken his gripe to the referee, IMO.dj (David Jones)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00935562356220146088noreply@blogger.com
