I have been attempting to be polite about the possible changes and in fact I always stated the current situation is indeed exciting. I have no big issue keeping it the way it is. Not terrible by any means but I do see room for improvement and discussing ideas ...even seemingly crazy ones has it's place. Like discussing the best player ever, there is no right or wrong answer, it's simply fun to discuss and "argue" your sides. When it is taken to the stupid personal level is when it gets foolish and as danivon has pointed out Randy took it there long ago.
I say anyone discuss the possible reasons to change and how to change, simply saying "No your wrong, you suck" isn't the way to do it. This is about ideas and discussion of them, feel free to disagree. Tell us why you disagree, your point about exhaustion is a powerful point, the excitement of a shootout, again, powerful stuff, To simply dismiss any that disagree with you is being foolish, Point out the folly in those other suggestions ask to come up with something better, all cool! Simply waving your hand in a know it all fashion is not how you would discuss other issues. We all have OPINIONS, opinions are not "wrong" they are personal feelings, how you can say my feelings are simple "wrong" is pointless, funny how so many American sportswriters agree with me but Randy fails to acknowledge them. They have different OPINIONS and discussing them is supposed to be fun, sometimes a "bit" heated, that's cool to get amped up over something you are passionate about, take it from that angle and be civil!
FYI, the comment where I do not know the game, not so fast pal. I am no rabid fan but I have played, I have coached, I have followed my kids all through high school and I do watch an occasional game. I am not ignorant of the game and simply waving me off as an idiot and yourself as some sort of know it all....kinda makes you look like a tool doesn't it?
Nowhere was I proved wrong as Randy insists, It is an opinion, ones opinion can not be wrong. I think the system could be done better, But Randy says no, it can't I am wrong? Huh????
Oh, one more question for mister know it all
Randy, Please tell me how many professional soccer matches you have played that went into overtime? You seem to be claiming you have been there, like you know the situation first hand. Maybe you have played such a game with your buddies in some recreational over 40 league? But these guys are professional athletes, comparting what YOU can do with whjat THEY can do....wow, you sure are full of yourself huh?
Now, take it down a notch, stop the personal insults, discuss things rationally. Disagree all you like, that's cool Danivon disagrees, no problem, is he hurling insults?
Am I?
...yep, right back at the one who started hurling them at me.
