      Make each goal worth 6 points with a penalty kick that would be worth 1... all other penalty kicks will be worth 3.

        If you'd want to avoid offside goals I'd sooner allow time out for video review, but it wouldn't be my first priority.
        Bingo. There is a reason the rule is in place. It's because prior to it, you'd have attackers right up at the goal, waiting for a ball to be hoofed up to them... it'd leave absolute tons of midfield space and be exceedingly dull. A "blue line" wouldn't really help.

              The offside rule was created to confuse Americans. It's working fine.

                Looks like they applied my rule to the North Korea game.

                  My enjoyment of that game was spoiled after 5-0 when it became clear that they're all going to be executed.

                    Never assume you know what Kim Jong-il is going to do next. He could just as easily have Cristiano Ronaldo killed, which would be ****ing sweet.

                          Change the ****ing offsides rule!

                          0-0 games are not entertaining, unless people are getting knocked the **** out.

                            I meant 2-3-5.

                            2 defenders make it real easy to offside trap the one forward.
