Soccer... I just don't get it

[PShabi]

I've tuned in for every US game this World Cup, mostly because of the discussion on this board, I guess.

However, this is absolutely comical. I've never seen a sport where the officials have such an impact on the outcome of the game. I'd assume that these are the best officials in the world. That's hilarious.

The first yellow card on Ghana was funny, too. That guy has to sit the next game (if they beat us) becuase of some bullshit.

The officiating, in US games and others, has totally turned me off to this event.
