@pk500@joewheat27 Dude, even arsenal wenger is publicly calling for a change in the offside rule isn't he? Cause in the World Cup offsides have started to look like technicalities. That's coming from a soccer fan.
@pk500@sweatystartup I gotta say he's right though dude. Offsides was put in to avoid cherry picking which is not an issue anymore. So every offside call is inches. I truly believe they need to adjust it so it's the whole body or something like that.
@JeffWaddilove I agree. I understand the reasoning for it, but it's still hard to understand. And it never stops skies from camping out near the goal. It stops guys who are offsides by an inch or a shoelace. It's dumb in hockey too. Why don't they have it in basketball?
@GordonEdes So he's arguing that athleticism is not important to soccer athletes? Using Messi to prove his point is like saying Steve Nash was nba mvp so athleticism doesn't matter in basketball. The USA team would be France if our best athletes played.
