Already getting a rep. Orlando City Floppers.

New to soccer/football I take it? Diving is common place in this sport fyi. If diving/flopping bothers you a lot, football may not be fun for you to watch.

Idk, man, those weren't that bad. Again, diving is a part of the game now, and was when you were a kid. You may only be noticing it in this game if you haven't watched football in a while.

It gets much, much worse than anything that happened in this game. Just youtube worst soccer dives, I'm sure there are hundreds of worse ones in the past year.

Anyway, my point was that OCFC won't get a reputation for diving. Its pretty hard to do that in football as all teams dive at somepoint.

Damn, 0-0 at the half. Gotta watch this Celtics game, but go Orlando!

I'm going to watch the Magic/Celtics game on TV and the 2nd half of Orlando City game on ESPN3 on my laptop.

Yeah you're probably right on the rep. That first one was bad, second was more common. And I still watch EPL games sometimes now, but not often. It's not this bad.

And yeah I'm sure there's a lot of terrible flops/dives. lol

[truth18]

I wonder what the history of diving in football is? I don't know enough to know when it became common place. Flopping in the NBA is such a recent development you can pinpoint when it became a problem.

WOW! One of these has to go in soon! lol

[truth18]

I want you guys to win this so badly. Everything about NYCFC pisses me off.

1-0 win with Kaka scoring would be awesome.

Almost

[Howard Mass]

It might have ended in a tie but it was a great first game for Orlando City Soccer.

Congrats to everyone involved.
