In response to "This calculation ignores that. Hockey has 60 minutes and basketball has 48, because there is always action while the clock runs." by TFox

- yeah, but the attitude that nobody scoring means nothing happens is pretty stupid. -- nm - mafic Jan 5, 12:35 2
  - running up and down a field kicking a ball does not impress me.... - groiny Jan 5, 12:37 1
    - I know dynamic games are complicated, but it can't all be set plays. -- nm - mafic Jan 5, 12:40
- yeah really. suck on that if you haven't fallen asleep that is -- nm - Beaker Jan 5, 12:28 17
  - it's still 90 minutes of play, regardless of the outcome. -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 12:29 16
    - So's a one meter snail race, doesn't make it exciting. -- nm - Ender Jan 5, 12:33
    - I could go watch kindergardners play duck duck goose and get more actual action. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 5, 12:33 6
      - and if that was the question being discussed, you might actually have a point. -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 12:35 4
        
        referring to the 90 minutes of actual "action" seems like I am touching on that. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 5, 12:38 1
        
        the question at hand is not the amount of percieved action, but the amount of time the ball is in play. - znufrii Jan 5, 12:40
        
        I also happen to think that if you really think that there's no action in soccer you must be f*cking blind. -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 12:38 1
        
        it is like watching basketball players dribbling up and down the court, but not shooting. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 5, 12:39
      - YEAH! -- nm - Cappy si Jan 5, 12:35
    - If it's a combo of playing time + high scores, then obviously Australian Rules football is the superior sport -- nm - Roger More Jan 5, 12:32 1
      - plus there's contact. -- nm - mafic Jan 5, 12:46

      - not knowledge, just enthusiasm -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 12:32 4
        
        Your prediction that USA will finish third is testament to this :) -- nm - Roger More Jan 5, 12:33 3
        
        to this, and to drinking, yes. -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 12:35 2
        
        That's true - I'd forgotten your sober prediction that the US will win all the group games and be defeated in the quarter finals :) -- nm - Roger More Jan 5, 12:37 1
        
        and *that* can be credited solely to enthusiasm. :) -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 12:38
