I wanted to know why. Sorry, I should have made that clear.

because if someone from your team is going down with not much time left, he fakes a fumble to keep the play going. If your team picks it up, you could keep going and fake fumbling until the other team is able to fall on it. They make it so you can't do that, you can lateral the ball to a teammate though.

I'm sure there is more to it... feel free to enlighten me.

You are in an offside position in soccer if:

There are less than two players between you and the opposing goal (draw a line horizontal to each player. Cross that and you are 'closer'πŸ˜‰ and you are in the opposing half and you are closer to the opposing goal than the ball.

You will be called offside if you are passed the ball and at the time it is kicked you are in an offside position or if you influence play in some other meaningful way.

Basketball stinks too.

Baseball is popular in several countries besides the US.

Japan, Mexico, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Philippines, and Chile to name just a few.

I'm going to throw my vote in with either dwarf tossing or wife carrying. Bloody stupid, the lot of 'em.

Just FYI, dwarf tossing is still legal in the Province of Ontario (Canada) in case anyone is interesting in seeing "how far they trust" Vern Troyer.

No, you had it right the first time. How many other sports have athletes that are 300+ pounds and 40%+ body fat, and still considered in "peak condition"?

More dumb sports include those in which one guy has got to beat the crap out of anouther

I know that in Boxing one can win if one knocks out the other guy but what are the rules if one killed the other guy would one be declared the winner or would there have to be a re-match πŸ™„

I'm going to be very bold here. I have to admit it...

I've always hated boxing! <GASP!> 😲

Yeah, the idea of beating another person till they collapse IS NOT my idea of masculinity!

There, the secret is out.
