I love living in the NW tier.......except for today. Seattle has one major flaw. It tends, more often than not to throw away it's history in favor of new shiny stuff. Just read today that the city council has "no plans" for the vintage 1920 street-cars that had been running for nearly 20 years but ended in 2005 due to a stupid expansion space for the SAM (Seattle Art Museum) Cars have been sitting, albeit well preserved, in a warehouse all that time. Most people including myself felt that after the Viaduct came down and stuff that it would be re-set up. Now the council says they'd rather have sleek modern light vehicles. St Louis is now interested in buying the cars for "their" city restoration and they think the charming cars are awesome.

Wanna head slap each and every one of our political Fat Cats. It's the Triangle Garage all over again.

Hi all,

ORIGINAL: Grollub

You are overanalysing that sentence ("gaining an advantage etc"). Since there is no referee with the ability to see into the future, the referee has to make a call for every situation as it happens. You can't "back up". Period. These are two different situations and that is why I tell you that where Navas was in the first is totally irrelevant, since he was on-side when he scored. Otherwise, there would be a need for rules on how long time you are supposed to "go back" in time to rule on the current situation. 3 seconds? 5 seconds? 15? one minute? Surely you see that this would cause even more absurd situations.

I really do understand what you are saying... I really do...

But, IIRC, in the 1970's the off-side rule was different - the tactics then was that you permanently had one attacker near goalkeeper of the opposite side... it was horrible...

With strict adherence to situation like yesterday we can essentially have the very same thing (but this time two attackers are needed - just like yesterday)...


IMHO the referee should have some sort of "memory buffer" - they already do that by giving yellow cards for some foul long after the foul occurred but they didn't want to stop the action...

Sometimes I start to think that I am back in Florida / Alabama instead of continental Europe... [8D]

That's sad. Yuengling is my second favorite beer to order in restaurants around here, behind a local brew named Red Oak.

They should be happy after last night!
