Fair, fair. We also don't move that fast, we gotta start thinking about the possibility of a player joining us, before going for an obvious deal like this.
Those two sports have some flopping to get fouls called, but they don’t act out nearly as much as football. All rolling around on the floor and getting stretchered off only to magically be healed a minute later.
You said "you don't see these theatrics in any other sport", but ok.
Anyway, basketball is equally as bad for example, as are almost all contact team sports - hockey has it as well even tho it's a sport which basically encourages fighting...
