    Your point is a fair one, but just for me, the stupid fake injuries are the most annoying of all. I can wait to tune in an NBA game until the fourth quarter, or mute the TV commercials for football while I go work on dinner or post on Packerrats, but the fake injuries and the terrible acting are inescapable.
    You just ignore the one dude laying on the ground.

    Hard to implement. There are legit injuries. They just keep playing now if there's no foul, so their team plays a man down while they are on the ground. That's helped get them back up faster at least.
