I'm a classic soccer hater but I started appreciating/ becoming a fairly big fan in the last couple years mainly because of the arrival of the Sounders and the immediate success they've had here. Still though, I think it's pretty ridiculous for the World Cup to be decided by penalty kicks.

i don't think it's doable, scoring in soccer isn't as easy as in say basketball and when two teams are exhausted and drawing, they generally nullify each other. plus soccer is exacting and 120 minutes is very long... you have players regularly having heart attacks on the pitch so to have them playing more than 120 minutes seems unfathomable

There are substitutes for a reason right?
The NBA doesn't have a free throw contest.

If you increase the number of subs or make it similar to the NBA, then it would really ruin the regular time flow of the game. If you only allow extra subs in extra time, then you'll have games decided on the players that weren't involved at all throughout the game and in most cases tournament. And penalty kicks do not equal free throws.

What do you mean? Change regularly throughout the game. If you need to sit Lionel Messi for 20 minutes or so then so be it if you want him in there to win the game.
But this is meaningless, the whole point is that it's still pure luck.

You talk an unbelievable amount of shit.

Im not a big soccer guy. I rarely watch it, but the US chicks were doing pretty good and there hot. from what i seen in the few games i watched the US penalty shots against brazil and japan the goalies were taking guesses and doing random dives to one side or the other.
