re: How can soccer take advantage of the NBA &NFL lockouts?

It's getting difficult to remember the time before the three hour miniumum football games, and it was only like a decade ago.

I only go to "non TV" LSU games now.

Even though i see nothing wrong w the rules of soccer, I've only ever heard of one rule change that's possible to increase scoring and excitement in the game. And that rule change is to eliminate offside when both the passer and receiver of the ball are inside of the 18yard box. That way there isn't much change to the entire game, it only opens up field in front of the goal allowing for more open alleys.

the douche tv time out guy with his stupid red hat took the brunt of our abuse

It's amazing how many people are still unaware that that guys is in charge of getting the ball rolling again. People always start standing back up when it's obviously still a tv timeout

He's a fun guy to yell at, but he never listens

I think college basketball is even worse when teams start fouling and calling timeouts near the end of a game and the networks don't pass on the opportunity to show a few more commercials.

When a team pulls that crap down 10 with less than 45 seconds left...that's one of the most annoying tactics in all of sports
