All these blatantly bad calls have turned this World Cup into a major joke as far as I'm concerned. I personally think soccer is boring to watch on TV, and all the flopping that goes on in the European games makes me sick to my stomach to watch (not to mention the basketball players from there that take that to the NBA), but then you add in the fact that FIFA doesn't admit to it's errors, won't try to make sure that it doesn't happen again, and basically doesn't give a fuck that games aren't being determined in a fair matter, and it makes soccer pretty much unwatchable to me and makes me beg the question: can someone PLEASE explain why THIS is the most popular sport in the world?
I mean, look at the NFL, NBA and NHL (and for Canadian football fans, the CFL as well even). All three of them have had games where bad and correctable calls have basically determined outcomes of big games, and all of them have put in replay to make sure that the call is correct and that the winner is determined by the players on the field/court/ice, not by people in striped shirts. So why can't the so-called most popular sport in the world, the "beautiful game", do this as well at it's highest level?
