No, I would not support making mistakes. I also don't want to see someone hurt on a play in front of goal because the flag did not come up until...
In the Euros, it seemed players were flagged for offside only after they had played the ball and someone else then touched it. Is this an...
Well, that's pretty much the question right there. One obvious idea is that he shouldn't, because a failure on that front will impact his overall...
Couple years ago a very good team repeatedly beat on offside trap near midfield by sending up an attacker from his own half. "Who kept him on...
When does this game kick off?? Everything online says 7 ET, 6 CT, but it's not on the Fire's site. ???
Sure. And what if the attacker who "scored," instead of shooting, passed back to a midfielder and the ball circulated around for another 20...
How well attended does anyone out there think the watch party at the Fire Pitch will be? Thinking of trekking up there for this one.
In my opinion, that call in the Homegrown Game was insane. I kept reading "APP" in this thread, and thankfully some poster expanded it: Attacking...
And if we win out there in Philly, we host the final! Oh, which is what willy said. ... still true...
Does anyone have any suggestions for a place with a good atmosphere for watching England-Colombia somewhere near Brookfield Zoo?
'Cuz it's not without VAR.

Another thought on the simulation issue: There was some contact on that play. Neymar clearly began leaning back as soon as the little shirt pull...
Overall, this was an excellently reffed game. Kuipers, I think, gets a high profile knockout game after this one. Interesting that the cautions...
All of your points are rather sound, but this last one is really the point. (Although there was a very interesting result this morning ...)...
Huh??? My data is about each confederation's likelihood of finishing last in the group. Brazil and Argentina almost never finish last in their...
I'm not the one to do this analysis--and it's probably already been done anyway--but this issue of home field advantage at the World Cup is huge....
So lowly Russia made themselves look great against a team I remember embarrassing themselves against Germany in years past. This had me wondering...
For starters, here's three important things: Groups of 3 are far too problematic regarding potential for ties and collusion; every World Cup team...
sheesh...
And we're granted the pk!
And now the ref is watching tv...
We were just denied a PK.
My ESPN+ feed is Spanish. Is there some inept English audio for this?
Which is funny, because, if I recall correctly, that was happening a lot in the early 90s and resulted in a great deal more emphasis being put on...
