Soccer star John Terry recently admitted to having sex with the girlfriend of England national teammate Wayne Bridge. (Terry also allegedly got her pregnant and made her get an abortion.) The offender, John Terry, was only stripped of his captaincy. Bridge quit the team.

In 1998, American midfielder John Harkes was booted from the U.S. World Cup squad after having sex with the wife of teammate Eric Wynalda.

I dont think the people able to suspend them care about their personal issues. If its going to hurt the teams capacity they wont even take morals into consideration. I think its sad how that situations is now happening with "proffesional" athletes .

okay First of all i think that the players personal life has nothing to do with soccer,If he wanted to have sex with that girl or whatever she is,its in his personal life that that's out of the field so i think it was very stupid for him to get suspended.
