ITT: Times in sports where the rules were abused

When NFL allowed players to take meals in McDonalds so they got fat faster

good post

Soccer teams used to go up 1-0 then pass the ball back to their goalkeeper, who would pick it up and and hold on to it for a while before rolling it to a defender, who passed it back to him, and so on. Boring as shit, they had to introduce a new rule to get rid of it.

Why only americans tought this was absurd? He committed a violation and got punished for it, the retarded Ghana players that wasn't competent enough to convert the penal.

Things wrong with your reply:
1 - Thought, not tought
2 - You assume americans are smart enough to understand football
3 - You regard americans' opinions
4 - Your english sucks
5 - No, openenglish won't help you
6 - Who the fuck uses 'convert the penal'?
7 - 1
8 - You are stupid
9 - You should go back to 55chan
10 - You should kill yourself

Almost every rule of the NFL designed to counter a plothole, which ends in bigger plotholes

Every year they find a new loophole, it's fun

Glad this cheater got what he deserved.

An official making a call is hardly an abuse of the rules.

Reggie Miller and Dwayne Wade launching themselves into players for easy fouls.

>>77672639
Wrong. That's a legal goal

>>77672659
at the time it was the correct call

Night Train Lane is the reason pulling the facemask in handegg is outlawed, he delivered some nasty shots while it was legal

Aaron Rodgers over-inflating the ball to his specifications because it made it easier to throw or something.

I don't understand. What happened here?

>>77678422
he deliberately blocks his own team's chance to score and gets chased by angry teammates

>>77678619
>his own team's chance
>angry teammates
I don't think that's right

>>77674065
Gj anão, vira-lataing should be a bannable offense tee bee aytch

>>77678619
He's not a player, he's one of the sideline staff who illegally interferes with play to stop a goal and is chased by the opposing team and fans.

>>77678619
>>77678422

the guy isn't a player. He is the gatorade boy or something. His team would be relegated in a state league or something

>>77672606

good stuff

>>77679545
and? there is nothing in the rules about awarding a goal "if it would have gone in"

>>77679565
And how their first instinct as soccer players is to try to kick him and not chase him down and tackle him

>>77676557
For me, it's when he throws the bottle holder on the face of the ballman.
