    I'm surprised Walter Sobchak didn't run out there with his .45 and tell the ref to mark it zero.

    Let's discuss, was the right call made? The one angle they showed on TV looked like it wasn't even close to in. But then I have seen several posts that it was the right call. Was it?

    We all understand that the ball has to *completely* be over the line to be out, correct?
    In order to be out, no part of the ball can be over any part of the line.

    Did you see space between the ball and line?

    Man has Chris Jones embarrassed himself covering this World Cup. Great writers are not necessarily great journalists.

    Curious as to how / why.

    Was it the Davies piece?

    Respect the trolling nature of naming Suarez captain against Ghana.

    Dreadful Ghana penalty attempt.

    After his stupid fakes and stutter steps, that ball had all the pace of a boys U12 rec league penalty kick.

    Every time I see a guy do that - same with those who meander in to take a shootout attempt in hockey - I think, "He has no idea what to do."

    Yes, as well as the follow up and his defence of it on twitter.
