Do I incessantly go into your baseball threads or create new ones to say I think the whole sport is completely retarded full of fat "athletes" who seem to spend more time munching on some sort of nuts and spitting them out than actually playing the game?
And note that at least I'd have the truth in my side...unlike you guys.

How is that even relevant?
Is it safe to say now that you are assuming I am a so-called non-fan?

Did you miss my last post?
And you have to be a pretty ignorant fan if you think FIFA ignores past refereeing mistakes when nominating referees so, again, accountability is different from demands for public apologies, regardless whether they'll be hypocritical or not.
Take your pick: non-fan or IGNORANT fan. Which one is it?

Calm down, tuff guy.
What makes you think I don't understand how FIFA nominates referees? ALL professional leagues look into performance when nominating, not just FIFA. Their methods are not infallible. Just look at Serie A. The same thing has happened in in the NBA and MLB as well.
Your snobbery is showing. I enjoy both kinds of football, basketball, baseball, hockey and just about any other sport they play up here and I understand them all as well. My main point this whole discussion is the advent of replay not that referees should be grovelling for forgiveness or whatever other ridiculous point you are trying to ascribe to me.

Thanks for showing how ridiculous your own argument about infallibility was. No method is perfect. Yay! We stated the obvious. 🙄 Next argument?
As for snobbery, my point was that if I don't like your sport I don't go and make a number of posts across different threads saying how crap it is and how fans "take up with that crap". THAT's snobbery, not live and let live.
BUT, if you come here with a complete inability to understand the sport (like sh76) and criticize it then I'm going to laugh at you. Is that snobbery?

FIFA continues to make a joke of itself
