I like hockey, but it's meant to be played not watched. That view on the game coupled with the fact that I live in Kansas makes things difficult. That's pretty much the extent of my enthusiasm for sports. As for music don't let the size of my collection fool you. It used to be much bigger. I lost

We seem to have wildly differing ideas of what's impontant in an MP3 player. 160gb would hold my entire collection 10 times over and I can't stand the clickwheel. At home I stream music from a media server so I don't really have any reason to use an mp3 player at home and I'm rarely in the car lon

Well it completely depends on exactly how instant replay would be used. If it's used like I described earlier than I think it would be helpful. Stopping play to dispute calls however would destroy the game. As far as the "fake injuries" comment I have a few things to say about that. First I think

I had this discussion with another soccer fan and they told me that instant replay _would_ disrupt the pace of the game. I then asked him, 'Oh, and all the acting and fake injuries do not disrupt the pace of play?' He had nothing to say there. Kind of sad that FIFA tolerates the bullshit acting b

I guess where we differ is for me more features != better quality. The features you listed don't really appeal to my liking of an mp3 player. The feature set that I like in my iPod Classic are the 1) 160 Gigs of storage, 2) Click wheel navigation as it makes traversing over 10,000 songs pretty e

We simply need a fourth official that sits in the tunnel and watches a monitor. In half a second after a play the fourth official could be reviewing the play from 16 different angles. The officials are already wired and talking to each other through ear pieces as it is. In the case of the goal aga
