I’ve been watching a lot of Football.\u00a0 The kind where you kick the ball.\u00a0 What Americans call Soccer.\u00a0 And I have a couple of ideas for the game. Typical American right.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Off Sides!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The first is for ESPN TV to put a moving line on the field that would show off sides in real time.\u00a0 The technology already exists in US Football to indicate where the first down line is.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

England ready to shoot high.<\/em><\/p>\n

Stress Test<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The second is a training exercise.\u00a0 More than half of the shots on goal that we have seen during the World Cup Finals have missed high.\u00a0 Sometimes very high.\u00a0 The consensus opinion is that soccer players adrenalin goes up as they approach the goal in these high stress moments and they put to much power on the ball.\u00a0 They need to be training under stress more.\u00a0 How about doing awful things to them if they miss during practice.\u00a0 Maybe water boarding or abhorrent sex acts.\u00a0 This would give them real experience with shooting under stress and perhaps improve their chances of hitting the goal.\u00a0 If nothing else it would create the footage for an excellent Reality TV Show<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m just trying to help. My excellent link proving:<\/p>\n
