There are championship winning head coaches trying to prevent plays from being run as quickly.

What you call bitching and what ty just snidely referred to as conversation is important because these discussions are how rules are improved.

Nobody would ever question my love of baseball. Nobody on this board has been more passionate about the addition of instant replay than me. I don't blindly defend the sport I love when it's wrong. I want it to be perfect.

Think about the same discussion we are having as it applies to hockey. Imagine how the proverbial "four minutes" would play out for the home team versus the visitor. Is there any reason you would have to encourage that change to the soccer methodology of time keeping? I would love for you to think on that for a time then reply when the mood here is less chaotic.

Responses:

I think there are very definitely things to fix and change about soccer. The clock is not one of them - Reagen Jun 26, 12:00 1
- I make this point because hockey and soccer are the most similar sports, stylistically. - David Jun 26, 12:03
