I dont think the game is too bad its the ***** *** rules & people that play it... if one hand gets laid on them they writhe around on the ground like someone hit em in the jewels with a baseball bat, i think the rules of the game are to blame for attracting all the panzies.

It's the same with basketball. Someone pushes another player and they just fall on the floor crying foul. In all sports you're going to have that not just soccer.

Yeah, for someone who hates soccer because it's gay, you sure pay a lot of attention to it. What's the deal man?

Mr. Furley

Very true but the more strict the rules are the easier it is to take advantage of it... and soccers contact rules are pretty wussified

In order to critique a game, you need to first understand it.
Watch the injuries and watch what most players try to get away with. Have you seen someone put metal cleats into someone's face? Or their leg?
It's not a pretty sight.

Why are soccer rules wussified?

They don't even play a set amount of time. The clock runs out and they continue to play until the ref decides to call the "match". Are they giving the team that is losing that extra amount of time to get that tie goal because they hate to see anyone lose?

Mr. Furley

Just on saturday i was watching and some dude touched another guy on the back to avoid hitting him & the guy started rolling around on the ground like someone hacked him with a machete and the other player was yellow carded... stupid

Well there are no time outs in the game. The only time someone can stop playing (but not stop the clock) is when someone gets hurt. (or it's 1/2 time) They extend the time of play to make up for the lost time (player gets hurt or removed from the field.)

What match was this?

True there are people that try to fake out the ref and get away with it. It's like that in most sports.

Well no wonder the ref issues so many of his gay rainbow colored cards for fake injuries. He is too busy being the scorekeeper and timekeeper to bother paying attention to the match being played.

Soccer is to sports as drifting is to racing...

Mr. Furley

I dont know what teams they were, i was in a restaraunt & it was on the tv... it was about 7pm saturday night though if that helps. It just seems like way more people take advantage of the rules in soccer

Mr. Furley

I dunno man i think curling and ice skating are "sports"

soccer is possibly the worst sport ever. and dont say i dont know about the game, i played competetive and select for 11 years. then i found lacrosse and all those years of soccer were a waste of time.
