Not an excuse. Your analogy blew. You compared a ball ALREADY ON ITS WAY TO GOAL to a guy being fouled before ever getting a shot off.
Ridiculous.

Well alright I give up then. I feel as if the examples I made justified what happened pretty well, but if there is no getting through your thick skulls then there's no reason to bother then is there?
With that being said, GTFO of the world cup board if you are so close minded.

The quarterback throws it in the endzone with 1 second left and the cornerback tackles the WR. Clear pass interference. They get the ball at the one and they can stuff it in the endzone.
Not in college. Only 15 yards.
It's poor sportsmanship, pure and simple. It's saying "I value winning more than the rules, my personal honor, and the integrity of the game."
But typical in general for society today and, judging by the other threads, soccer fans in particular.
As far as popularity, been to an MLS game lately? At least one country is smart enough to see through the charade.

It's ridiculous. shite. If that's the rule, then defenders should handball EVERYTHING that is on goal that the keeper can't get.
Yeah then play the rest of the game with no defenders. Some people here are so stupid.

You think a comparison of a shot that hasn't even been taken to a shot that is almost in the goal was solid and you are saying my skull is thick?

I already addressed this with a later post that said do so in the final minutes.
Would rather play with a man down for the final 5 minutes or so than down goal.
Is that even arguable?

A team is forced to forfeit if down to 7 men, so it seems like a great idea to intentionally handball everything going into the goal.

sports do not fricking translate to each other. they are different. illegally saving the goal with your hands in soccer is like illegally saving the goal with your hands in fricking soccer.
you don't need to relate it to another sport. it is not another sport. it is its own sport.

When Shaq is fouled under the basket, should they just give him the points? He was going to make it anyway right?

Except in this case there was no "rest of the game." Dude didn't get to take PK's, (which obviously they didn't miss) wouldn't have made a difference in the arse-raping they're about to get from the Netherlands, and gets to play in the 3rd place game. Winner all around. Rewarded for deliberately breaking the rules.

No, but if the ball is halfway down the cylinder and you knock it back out, the points still count.
But that's because basketball was invented in America.

People deliberately break the rules in every sport. He has to pay the price, he can't play next game and there was a 90% chance Gyan would make it. He was just trying to do anything he can to help his team. Everyone else would do the same thing.

I actually bought a ticket to twilight last night and went and saw the movie. It was sooo stupid I don't understand how people like it. So when I got home i went on the twilight message boards to tell everyone they're ****s and the twilight series blows. 
Or does this analogy blow too?

For chrissakes. These people are delusional. How else to explain analogy's about B'ball players being fouled before they every get the shot off.
I mean frick, both games have nets. There is an OBVIOUS analogy. IE, if the ball is already on its way in the goal, you can't knock it the frick back out.
The player wasn't fouled. The fricking ball was on its way into the goal!!!

I'll take 90% chance of losing over 100% chance of losing EVERY DAMNED TIME.,

If he's under the basket alone he'd dunk it in and make it 99% of the time. So if a defender grabs him and intentionally fouls him, he should just get the points. CHEATERS SHOULD BE PUNISHED!

What? I would be fine if they made it so the goal counted. Its a bit absurd to make them take a PK (people act like its so easy when its not) after a goal is stolen from them.
That said Suarez just did what everyone else would do. And plus it was just an instinct move.

You are aware that if he gets the shot off and it's halfway in the basket and the defender knocks it out, he DOES get the points, right?
THAT is the comparison.

People make pks at about a 90% rate. That's almost a sure thing. I'm being ridiculous because everyone who thinks the goal should be given is ridiculous.
