Here is a list of time’s Uruguay’s polarizing Luis Suarez has gone Florida Face-Eater on his opponents:

  • In 2010 he bit a player in the Eredivisie, which earned him a 7-match ban.
  • In 2013, he bit Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic, which earned him a 10-match ban.
  • Just now, this happened with Giorgio Chiellini in Uruguay’s third match of 2014’s World Cup:
  • In our opinion, there is only one logical explanation for this behavior: Luis Suarez is on bath salts. Although, to play devil’s advocate, I imagine it’s it’s a daily struggle to not puncture other people’s skin with your teeth when they’re that ginormous.
