Much To Do About Change…
Posted by VeRonda Wicks June 28th, 2010The FIFA (What this stands for is below. Geesh!) peeps are thinking of taking away all instant replays and anything showing past plays within the game of soccer. Of course, this is much to the dismay of Americans, of which are seemingly in the few who want this latest and greatest in technology to remain.
The thing is, the umps are getting it wrong. Simple as that… The point of the game is to get goals and if the ump is disallowing them, when they’re so rare in the first place, it makes for a dull game. Some say that’s the point (not the dullness), that the game is subjective and that’s the beauty that should remain.
I’m all about replays… I think in this new age of being able to see everything when you want and need to, that not allowing this advancement would leave the game antiquated. I’m interested in hearing thoughts on this one ’cause it’s possibly a grand transition in sports (or not… LOL!). Overall though, I’m not the biggest fan of change. I like familiarity. I like knowing things will remain the same… I mean, especially when something isn’t broken, you know? That’s just me…
FIFA=International Federation of Association Football (French: Fédération Internationale de Football Association)… It was way too long to explain above…

Wait, so… they’re taking away replays? Is there any other sport that doesn’t have them? I don’t see the point…

Yeah, Drew, it’s crazy. The want the game to remain subjective and at the determination of the ump. They’re not embracing the western sensibilities of the game.
