Oh, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree about Sepp. Do NOT get me started on that rant.
He argues that it is "part of the game" that it will "slow it down?" Look at hockey! Look at tennis! It did neither! I do not advocate reviewing every single infraction but, come on, those big ones? Why can you have two or even three refs discussing the point while keeping the players at a distance so as not to hear their input when all it would take is a "man in the booth?"
Call me stupid. I just don't get it. Sadly, it will probably be as I said: a death to spur some sort of movement there. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Saturday, July 03, 2010 2:55:26 PM)

Yeah they really need goal line technology. But I think with Sepp Blatter at the helm it will be difficult to get Fifa to agree on something unfortunately.

While I am happy that Spain won, that was FAR from a "decisive vitctory."
Greater question is WTF is up with the officiating?!? Those penalty kicks were just too much. Hey, FIFA...let's get with the times and get a friggin' CAMERA in there! Not for the small offenses but lives are seriously at stake when you miss a big one.
