The New Yorker came out with a great new video that shows all the ways that players try to cheat "the beautiful game" to gain an advantage over their opponents. Recently, we posted about how flopping didn't really exist in the past, and indeed this may be the case. However, the tricks of time-wasting, deliberate fouls, playing hand balls, etc. have been around for a while.

Enjoy!
