Soccer

The US is the best in the world at so many different things, it's tough to keep track.

Well there's obesity, school shootings and Evangelical Christians for a start.

So am no expert in Association Football, so can someone explain to me how come if the game is to end at the ninety minute mark it does not, but goes on for like another five minutes?

Diego Costa is heading to Chelsea. I hope he can finally bring some power to the attack.

Overtime for fouls, injuries etc. They ref decides how many time should be added.

I think you're referring to extra time. It is added for the time loss during the game itself, for instance when a player got injured and the game was stopped for a short while. One of the referees on the side line holds up a sign around the ninety-minute mark showing how many extra minutes are played.

I see, thank you.

yes so rather than stop the clock like in normal games they keep the clock running and the ref guesses how much time should be added, and the fans guess when the game is going to end. It's a lot of guess work.


Hey soccer fans, or fans of high South American fashion, can one of you please explain what the fuck this is?

Is that how Palacio hooks up to his Avatar?

The clock doesn't stop during the game like it does in a lot of sports so when there's other things happening and time wasting it gets made up in injury time. Only slightly though there's usually only a few minutes each half when there's a lot more time spent not playing football.

Umbilical cord reattachment gone wrong.

Lol @ normal sports stop the clock. The clock keeps going in football because there's no stupid time outs like American sport

Cant believe Switzerland missed that chance right at the end. fucking hell. To add with the Swiss team, its like more than half the team is Kosovan. Always funny when incredibly racist European nations have teams filled with immigrants.

I hope the US loses so Obermann will stop talking about soccer every night.

Noel had mentioned that the obesity rate in Australia is sky high also.

It would be better if they stopped the clock instead of the ref making an estimated guess of extra time to add on. Plus they shouldn't be allowed to celebrate for like 10-15 mins after a goal is scored, while the clock keeps running.
