half of the croatian dudes look exactly the same, I thought for a second that guy already had a yellow.
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

Would you prefer them adopt the NHL unlimited OT rule?


Yes. Run of play leading to a golden goal.

Wanna post about how the MLS official is controlling the game like a boss.

Which is weird, because outside of the Pac12 Football refs, MLS refs are the worst.

Personally, would rather see 4-15 minute periods before PKs, but each of those 15 minutes are via silver goal, not golden.
