Soccer used to suck.

 

Now it is fun. 

 

They finally added goal line technology. All we need are official reviews, and it will be America's number one sport!

You had me until your 4th sentence, then I just laughed and laughed. :D

In all seriousness, by the next world cup, all FIFA has to do:

 

1.  Allow fouls in the penalty box to be reviewed

2.  Allow offside goals to be reviewed

Not a bad set of ideas.

And also count down instead of up.

One thing I find annoying at 89 minutes I don't know if the clock will stop at 91 or 95.

It takes some getting used to, but never knowing the stoppage time until the last 30 seconds of regulation, it is what it is. One thing I find refreshing is that most of these FIFA games are playing to the stoppage time fairly exact. If they get 5 minutes, he's blowing the whistle between 4:55 and 5:10, whereas I've seen some of the Premier League and other league games go 20-45 seconds past the stoppage point, regardless of if there is action or an offensive push. These teams have 90+ minutes to score, if they can't score in 3-5 minutes after that, I don't care if they're crossing midfield on a breakaway, too late.

He decided not to go because Cuba didn't enter and they couldn't play Russia, his two favorite countries.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
