So you want FIFA to "respect" the nba rules and adopt them cause bball is an american product and at the same time you refer to football as soccer?
BTW in england ,FOOTBALL`s birth place ,till 15-20 years ago the teams were allowed to have 2-3 players on the bench and could only do one sub. Unlike the rest of the world. I don`t remember them complaining.
You clearly didn't read all I wrote big guy. I don't know how many times I went out of my way to address it as "football" and how I kept explaining I was saying "soccer" so other people could understand in laymans terms ok. We know you call it football. Great. It's soccer over here still. And for quite a few reasons. We won't get into. But just go back and before addressing me actually try and read what I wrote guy.
The analogy your discussing is very minor compared to what it actually is for basketball. You dont see it because you don't deal with it in "football". Your best example was the subbing one guy instead of three? Are you serious? Look at all the rules between the international game of soccer or as you so call it "football" and it's all very similar. It hasn't changed much at all besides a few subs which is very minor but you need a pat on the back for excepting apparently. And then basketball where clearly lots if rules are very different. From the ball to the dimensions of the court. To how physical the play is. To traveling
calls.
A better example would be if FIFA said were taking away all penalty kicks. I'm pretty sure England would go nuts and rightfully so I might add. And also a lot of proletariat wouldn't even consider the game soccer or "football" anymore. That's how I feel watching the international game. That's the point I'm trying to make. I understand some like the rule variations. I respect that stance I just don't have the same one. And the United States should have the final say in creating all the rules for the world to follow because the game was created here. Just like how the game of "football" was created by the English and they had final say on the rules.
Is that really arrogant and out of line? Lots of people clearly think so. I don't however so I'll say it. I'm just calling it like it is. If England can dictate a game they invented why can't the U.S.?? And why shouldn't we be entitled to? Once again just my opinion. If yours differs we can agree to disagree. The shots and talking down are ridiculous cause as if now I'm the only one defending my point of view. I'm not gonna be intimidated or guilted into another view. I calls um how I sees um fellas sorry if you don't like it.
