Bruce Springsteen has commented on claims that Uruguayan footballer on Luis Suarez bit Italian player Giorgio Chiellini during a World Cup match on June 24.

“Biting has no place in sports,” said Springsteen to a reporter from TMZ who quizzed him about the incident. “What are the rules about biting in the World Cup?” he asked. “There probably should be one.”

When asked if he would be following in Bon Jovi‘s footsteps and owning or creating a sports team himself, he commented: “No. Rock and roll is hard enough.”

An online museum of Bruce Springsteen memorabilia will launch this month to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the singer’s record Born In The USA. BlindedByTheLight.com will feature over 300 objects, ranging from concert posters to handwritten lyrics – with more items to be added in the future.
