    Soccer offsides? Kind of a joykill rule
    Wonder what would happen if the canned that rule? Otherwise I hope the next World Cup is in a country where they show the games at night. These afternoon naps are screwing me up.

    canning it completely would be no good as you would have people camping by the goal, kind of why nba has 3 seconds rule.

    they should do something like hockey with the offensive zone, no offsides once past a certain line

          There is a reason for offside rule. If there was no offside guys with beer bellies can win world cups in their 60's.

                2014 is in Brazil, so the times should be better for those in the states -

                  if there was not offsides you could box out the goalie it would not work
