Oh Those Whacky Germans

German keeper feels he ‘fooled the referee’ - International Football - Yahoo! Sports

Other than "diving," ever have someone try to pull one over on you?

Best one I remember was actually done BY me, not ON me. Clock winding down - couple of minutes left, we're behind. Offense tries a "safe" swingpass that my guard knocks up into the air. I'm CB - I dive for it, making a beautiful 1-hopper "catch" of the ball at my finger tips, throw the ball up in the air and run off the field screaming. They gave me the INT (and flagged me for delay!). We scored 2 plays later and won the game.

Worst I was ever fooled on the field (and bailed out by my partner), on a bunt, F2 fires to first. F3 jumps up in the air to catch it, coming down empty. I see F9 chasing it down the line. I move up the line anticipating a future play on the next runner, as R1 scores easily. I glance over to make sure she touches home, only to see F2 with the ball!!! Luckily, partner sees the catcher tag the runner about 10 feet up the line. I bought the beers afterward, obviously.
