    Official Major League Soccer/US Men's National Team Thread

    Studs up is perpendicular to the ground, which his studs didn't make it that far. I would have called it from ESPN's angle, but after seeing that angle, I wouldn't have called it, but that's just me.

    Official Major League Soccer/US Men's National Team Thread

    ehh, the studs are up because he's stepping in, but off to the side of Aquino's body, & didn't make contact. It was pretty dumb to even attempt that from where he was, but I still don't see it. Definitely a foul, but the ball is gone by the time the mess happens. How do they handle fouls in...

    I could be biased, but this doesn't look like a penalty to me. Aquino scuffed the shot, then flopped on over after the ball had left his foot when Edu hit him. US Ties Mexico After Blown Penalty Call [Video] - Business Insider

    Who, the ref? I could see that happening after this.

    This ref is f'n terribly biased towards Bayern. I fully expect a touchline ban from Wenger after this shambolic display.

    Yeah, I know he did. Just saying I wouldn't use them to prove a point without checking reputable sources prior. You probably knew that, but anyway.

    If y'all say so. Considering your supported teams, can't say I'm surprised. :D And just because that's the way it's called in every league doesn't make it the right call. I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing it called more and more as they crack down on dangerous play.

    Natural or not, it was studs up, chest level. With the crack down on dangerous play now, that's a red every time. Intent isn't a consideration.

    I could be wrong, but I don't think intent to injure is a qualifier for a red card. Any time you go studs up and high, you better know where the opposing team players are as it is dangerous play. Was it harsh? Maybe. Did Nani give him a reason to brandish the red? Absolutely. It wasn't an...

    I can go with that, easily. Just not digging the vibe of people being content with 8-9 wins continuing on. 10+ wins and contending for SECCG's & BCS inclusion should be expected.

    8-9 wins and people are happy & think it's awesome? WTF?
