Thrash-494 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 (edited) That second red card was the worst call I have ever seen. Ever. That's a yellow at absolute worst cuz he even got a piece of the ball! Stupid referee. Edited June 17, 2006 by Thrash-494 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darin3 Posted June 17, 2006 Author Share Posted June 17, 2006 Echoing the sentiments already expressed... that was a HORRIBLE call. That was a yellow card AT WORST. Alexi Lalas, in the studio, was 100%... if any substitution is to be made, it will be bringing Beasley back in. He's fast in open space... and it's amazing to see the increased space on the field when you're 10 on 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrash-494 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Is Bill Leavy the ref? It doesn't say who the refs are on the FIFA match tracker thing...but whoever it is should be fired immediately. I can not believe that call..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Johnson is a strong possibility to come in later if we're still tied. As for Pope, him and Donovan both have not impressed me so far. Hopefully we can pull off a win anyway.

wiegie Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 For what it's worth. There is a HUGH scandal in Italy right now involving several top teams and players (including Juventus (the Italian soccer equivalent of the NY Yankees)). One of the things that has been alleged to have occurred is that the Juventus management secretly arranged for to play their games with referees who would give Juventus good calls. Just thought this bit of news added another element to the BS call we just saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
