Death is terrible, stuffing your genitals into the unwilling is also terrible, more than one thing at a time can be terrible in the world.

I wrote about that months ago, but nice try.

Right, it was presented differently from, say, how he enabled his son’s addiction.

A sad broken man because of how he treated his family. He was thrilled when talking about the sexual misconduct.

Oh look, it’s “Wrestling is Fake!” guy. Thanks for stopping by. We know. It’s still entertaining. He was the greatest pro wrestler of all time. Nobody said anything about actual fighting.

There’s a time and a place to discuss the sometimes meaningful differences between various forms of sexual misconduct.

Apparently not, and that’s precisely the problem.

I hope you are, because that shit is not okay and it is not funny.

Picture the people that cornered and ran the fight rackets back in the 1940's, and a person most likely will picture a big goon willing to hurt someone. With bicycle gangsters, though, the picture is one of thin dorks in spandex that take themselves too seriously, willing only to cop snotty attitudes.

This is true. I’ve never seen a team put the goal in the net and get all excited and but then it gets called back because the AR has the flag up or the ref spotted a minor infraction in the box. Shame if that ever happened.

This is dumb. The average review takes less than 2 minutes. And there’s usually a delay of a minute or longer after goals or controversial plays (celebration, players surrounding the ref, etc) anyway.

This seems to be a bit of hyperbole. Per the NFL officiating site there were only 350 reviewed plays out of over 40,000 plays last year. That’s total, not per team. You’re indicating that there would be roughly 36 reviews per game, which would mean closer to 400 reviewed plays per week. Nothing I can find at all seems…

Bad games, injured stars, and improper application of rules still haven’t made NFL games “unwatchable”.

And, in the case of soccer, potentially tens of millions of dollars if a bad call means a team doesn’t get promoted, or misses out on the World Cup.

The only possible reason for thinking there are 3-5 replays per drive is if you are mistaking replay challenges for the instant replays they show on TV. Teams only get 2-3 challenges for the entire game.

Counterpoint: replay is good, and has not “poisoned” American sports. Because getting the right call on a key play is worth a minute or two of our lives.

No, fuck that noise. You’re completely wrong.

The issue with VAR is that decisions in soccer are rarely based on simple binary questions. Goal-line technology works well because the question is “did the entire ball cross the line?” Rendering decisions on penalties or cards is different, because the question becomes something like “did the contact in this incident…
