Have you really got nothing better to do in your life then wish ill on others? I know Mel Gibson failed to give you FREEDOM but isn't it time to get over it?

In men's football, there is a time when a free kick is awarded right in front of the goal area and the men line up and stand protecting their ummmm private parts against the ball - in women's football what do they protect - their breasts? We were just talking about that at the office and saying how we never actually paid much attention to that - now we're all seriously wondering.... thanks.

and if you can, give reasons why...

I won't pick an answer that just says what team you think will win it without what team they'll beat....OR just the matchup...i want scenarios people!!!!!

Imagine you were approached by FIFA and asked to make any changes you wished to the rules and regulations governing football.What would you add or remove to any aspect of the game?

What's wrong with the referee's this year! They are card-happy which spoils the entire fun of the game. Come'on people, it was a clear cheapshot & playacting for Italy to get the penalty and the referee gave it to them! It was absolute bullCRAP unbelievable! He was probably tired and didn't want to run another 2X15mins. ruined the whole game!

I'm an England fan in the UK, but even I couldn't believe that decision, but what do you think?

Penalty or Cheating Italian Dive?

The world has about 6.5 billion people, of which only about 66% have a television. That leaves about 4 billion people. With China having about 1.3 billion people do we really think they will wake up at 3 am to watch a FIFA where their country is not participating? North American ratings are poor therefore NOT alot of people are watching from North America.
Additional Details
I understand people can watch the games on big screens or bars etc. but those individuals are not the demographic who do not own a TV. Its the parts of the world that do not have stable electricity, and care more about their next meal then a worldcup. Everyone flaunts the perception that Americans only think about America but sorry all you soccer fans you are falling into the same role, b/c not EVERYONE likes soccer/football.

Explain away 1.3 billion chinese, 1 billion East indian (#1 sport Cricket), 1 billion North Americans out of which maybe 500 million may watch...

USA v Ghana
Korea v Switzerland
And now Italy v Australia
There are many more....

This is a WORLD cup, not a Sunday leauge. Why are so many controversial calls being butchered by referees at FIFA's showcase world tournament?

We all know most Americans are not into football (or what they call soccer) and one reason I've heard is that scoring in football is low.So I was thinking of some of the changes the Americans would make to scoring in football and I came up with a couple of ideas.
1.Goals scored from outside the penalty box = 3
2.Goal scored inside the penalty box =2
3.A goal scored from a penalty kick = 1
4.Four consecutive corner kicks = 1
What else do u think they would have changed?

Rooney's probably the better player and that's not saying much.
