        Of course war produces dead bodies on the opposing sides. I hope they don't swim in the red card sea.

        it's not a must or their duty to speak to the press. Media outlets' job is to look for stories to cover, players' job on the hand is to win games and not to give the media sensationalist headlines like the above. tchiip
