All this excitement because someone is lining up to do a penalty kick? Lol.

When you catch and have as many balls thrown his way, the chances of taking shots are also increased. Many hits aren't overtly intentional or even illegal. Any that are should draw a quick flag. Before long, they'll be calling touch fouls like they do for QB's

I love moments like this.

>Although both hits described in the article in Saturdays game were flagged neither appeared to be illegal, especially the first one
They obviously appeared illegal to the ref or they wouldn't have flagged it. The reffing was absolute dog shit in that game and these might have been questionable calls, they definitely weren't egregious.

Well, first off, American Football only really exists in America. That's like saying Australia dominates Footy-- no shit.
And I was in Chicago for that 2016 WS win. The insanity was really only in North Side. Half of the baseball fans in the city hate the Cubs. And even more people are completely indifferent to baseball at all.
But, all of that aside, can you think of any sport, or anything else really that would elicit this type of response from a majority of people in the U.S.?

Do you really want someone like the Bengals to steam roll a team from Japan? Do you really want to see a 100-0 score?
We already have enough with the laughable FIBA finals where our 3rd rate NBA players wipe the floor.

Doesn't matter. Being the best in the world isn't the same as being world champion. You gotta win a world championship for that.

Sounds like the Ukraine security services are siphoning funds from the football federation? Confusing AF. Feel bad though for these journalists that have to make sense of international football scandals.

Of the two sports that use "world champions" its quite an easy argument to make that no team put together of a single country could beat the team that won.

Ya kind of a dumb take honestly.
These happen in the US all the time. Case in point, cubs 2016.
Now as a whole country, ya probably not. But simply because the international level of the two sports most US residents watch are absolutely dominated by the US (basketball, football)

Taken from Wikipedia, its not a date in this instance "9 de Julio Avenue is one of the main arteries of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, capital of the Argentine Republic. It runs about three kilometers in the heart of the city, communicating the transport hubs and the main railway terminals in the neighborhood of Retiro and Plaza Constitución."
