Subject: The only thing is with Soccer and other team sports like that, at least they all compete for the spots in rounds, like with the world cup. If you didnt sort out winners from certain continents, then soccer would have to start weeks before. But to not even be given a chance due to a stupid rule is crazy when the competion is right there and you have to earn it just like some of the 3rd world countries in team sports..
In reply to: Jam 's message, "This kind of thing is nothing new. Just look at (first example I could think of at the top of my head), the soccer world cup. You have qualifiying rounds on all continents, and only so many teams per continent make it to the final tournament. Then what do you get? Powerhouses like England need to stay home, Saudi Arabia qualifies (just examples!!!!), all in an effort to make the tournament more diverse. Makes good tv, but not the best sport." on 05:41:52 07/31/12 Tue
