And, that is one of the many reasons I don't watch soccer.


It makes for a dramatic ending, but I'd just as soon see them keep playing until someone scores.

Shoot-outs or penalty kicks are the stupidest ideas every. Just keep playing OTs til someone scores the Golden Goal.

I'm only a casual fan of soccer and hockey, but it's killed enjoyment of either sport for me. Reward a hard fought game in a team sport by forcing someone to win a ridiculous one-on-one contest? At least hockey has tried experimenting with some exciting OT rules that still emphasized team play (4 on 4 or 3 on 3 extra periods)

Eh...maybe I'm just down the Jays didn't pull it out.
