Up there with Imperial (Americans) and Metric (rest of the world) measurements. Sorry couldn't resist.

WIBNI (Wouldn't It Be Nice If) someone could invent a Metric system of time...change years, months, weeks, days, hours and seconds to metric. Have each element be based somehow off the number 10. Any takers?

The worst thing about the game is that in championship games when the time runs out and it's still tied they decide the World Cup on penalty kicks. I think that's sort of pathetic.

It has been tried and does not work out nearly as well.

Actually it goes into extra time and extra, extra time and then ends in penalty kicks. The only thing unfair about is to the goalies who are held pretty much solely responsible for the outcome regardless of how well they played prior to then or during the penalty kicks.

Well I think they should play until one of the teams actually scores a goal. They just need to have the necessary substitutes. May the best bench win!
