Solana rips the MLS for waiting several days to reach a decision on Luis Suarez.

Transcript

00:00So I'm very upset about what the MLS has decided to do this morning.

00:04I don't know if any of you saw this,

00:05but Inter-Miami is going to play Nashville game three, win or go home.

00:09The winner moves on in the second round.

00:11The loser is ousted from the MLS playoffs in the first round.

00:15Same spot Inter-Miami was in a season ago at home.

00:18And they have suspended my guy Luis Suarez for game three against Nashville on Sunday

00:25for a play that he wasn't penalized for.

00:28Not shown a yellow or red card in the game the other day,

00:32but the MLS went back, replayed the incident,

00:36and has now handed down a one-game suspension in a essentially game seven of the playoffs.

00:42That guy's got behavioral problems as well.

00:44He does.

00:45He would probably benefit from a sit-down with Spoh and Zoe and Riley.

00:51He's way past that, man. I promise he's way past that.

00:54But it is insane.

00:56If you go watch the play, hey, definitely kick the dude.

01:01But to suspend him for a game seven,

01:04and we're talking about one of the biggest stars in the league,

01:06imagine suspending one of the biggest stars in the league

01:09for something that he wasn't penalized for on the floor

01:13or on the pitch or on the court five days later before a win or go home match.

01:19It's absurd what the MLS is doing here.

01:21I got to watch the play because I'll send it to you.

01:27Didn't he spit on someone recently too?

01:28He bit a guy.

01:30Well, he bit a guy a couple years ago in the World Cup.

01:33But he spit on someone recently.

01:34That was his third biting incident.

01:36He did serve a multi-game suspension for spitting on a Seattle staff member in the League's Cup final.

01:43And, again, that kind of stuff happens.

01:46Oh, Solana.

01:48He cocked back and donkey kicked the man in his thigh.

01:51What are you talking about?

01:52He didn't cock back.

01:53That's ridiculous.

01:54Solana, I'm watching it right now.

01:57He didn't cock back.

01:58He cocks back and donkey kicks the man straight in the thigh.

02:02Well, if you're going to describe it that way, of course he's going to get suspended.

02:08Five days is the problem with that story.

02:10It took five days to do it.

02:12But, Solana, you watch that film and say, oh, that's a soccer play there.

02:15That's not worth a one-game suspension.

02:18It's not.

02:18He should have been carted on the field.

02:20I would have been down with that.

02:22And you move on.

02:23That's not worth a one-game suspension.

02:24It's just not.

02:25He got tripped up, retaliated, and he stuck his cleat in the dude's groin.

02:29Like, no big deal.

02:31I mean, come on.

02:32That happened.

02:33Solana, that's a stickier cleat?

02:36That's a donkey kick to the crotch, Solana.

02:39Whatever, man.

02:40Stupid.

02:40I don't know what to do.

02:44I'm still reeling over the Panthers' point total.

02:50Then he smiles, and then he puts up, like, a finger gun and shoots at something.

02:55Dude, Solana, you're defending this?

02:57This is crazy.

02:58I'm not defending his actions.

03:00He's a repeat offender, and he's a dummy.

03:03And it's hard to defend a guy, even though he's one of my favorite athletes of all time.

03:07But to suspend one of the biggest stars in your league for that, Crowder, you would agree, is ridiculous.

03:13It's preposterous.

03:14Genuinely, it is.

03:15To suspend him for a game seven?

03:16It is ridiculous and preposterous.

03:19I've been watching a lot of Stephen A. Smith.

03:20You've got some big words under your belt today, huh, Solana?

03:32Hey, so Fox signs Drew Brees to a multi-year deal.

03:36They have locked up Tom Brady, Greg Olson, and now Drew Brees.

03:39He's going to partner with Adam Amin, but that probably means Mark Sanchez hit the bricks.

03:45Well, understandable.

03:48Saw that coming.

03:50I mean, I don't know.

03:53Don't get stabbed.

03:55Don't beat up a 70-year-old man for no reason either.

03:57Don't get stabbed in self-defense, or the guy is stabbing you in self-defense of what you're doing to him.

04:05Allegedly.

04:07Allegedly.

04:08I wasn't sure how I was going to defend Luis Suarez.

04:13I'm fascinated to hear how you're going to defend Mark Sanchez.

04:15Listen, don't do something that causes someone to stab you in self-defense.

04:24Allegedly.

04:25Allegedly.
