    i forgot about the setup on the Fabiano goal, which was nice, but haven't been real impressed with his decision making elsewhere.

    Pfffft. Yeah that might happen, but so what? They might have scored already too. Moot point

    As per your previous post. Other team scores while review is under way. Goal counts. Someone gets red card - it counts. I'm rather confused why the "play on" crowd apparently does not understand what exactly that connotates. Here's a hint: you play on as you normally would. You know, like continuing play. :confused: ;)

    You could argue that the pace is more frantic and, accordingly, the rhythm more important, i.e., the NFLs rules after the 2 minute warning. (For the record, you were the one concerned about late-game replays, not me)

    Because the idea was to be pragmatic. duh.

    While not as dumb as swoly's arguments, this one is pretty damn stupid too. Since when is it a bad thing to fix something as well as you can instead of ignoring the problems? If I put a bucket under a leaky pipe that's a hell of a lot better than letting the puddle spread over the whole damn carpet. I mean seriously, if the fix doesn't fix everything it's not worth it? That's assinine.

    :rolleyes: What do you want them to do when a player is injured for real...? Run over him?

    Out of grace and fair play, they kick the ball out of bounds if need be... even though it's within the rules. "Case Closed"? What the **** are you, the judge? :grin:

    Yes, I am the judge, we are talking about the right opinion.

    HMMMMMMMMM????

    Your logic is bad at many places and you don't or refuse to understand the problem. Forget it, it's not worth it.

    I believe in internet lexicon, the traditional catchphrase used in this instance is "pwned".

    FIFA already uses "technology", using radio communication to communicate between officials.

    Why not make the next step?

    Yep, pwnage !!!

    So many fans all over the world want it fixed...it may take an entirely new start up league for them to get busy fixing their problems.

    Fifa has a great game, but they are screwing it up, fans can see the problems, they need to be addressed.

    DO NOT add technology that stops the water from running, sir. :eek: We should put 10 buckets under that bucket so that the new bucket technology fixes the bad pipes.

    "It was a mistake to show it".....

    Yet, not a mistake to make the wrong call.

    And such an easy fix......

    whats wrong with putting an official at each goal to specifically watch the goal line? they make the calls on whether it was a goal or not, nothing else.

    Thanks. Maybe one day you'll be able to actually type out what I apparently don't "understand" instead of just vaguely alluding to it without any semblance of point-driven argument. Until then, I really have no choice but to assume that I won this argument 1-0, after replays confirmed my goal did indeed cross the line.

    Actually for those of us scoring at home, it is decidedly in his favor over you and Swollen.

    You just want a time out to go pee and watch more commercials... admit it... you love the timeouts in the NBA and in the NFL because they sell you more chips and beer to get fat. :p
