In soccer you are allowed shoulder to shoulder contact before you make a tackle, 'k.

Actually it's legal, the refs allow it because it's legal and in the rules of the game.
How could you tire of something that you intentionally made comment about just to get a response. Oh yeah, I've peeped that long ago.
I'm just bored of it, I proved my point a while ago and I've no wish to give you more straws at which to grasp.
For one thing, a tackle in football and soccer are entirely different. In football, it's intent is to knock a player down. In soccer it's stealing the ball....if the opposing player is knocked off balance during this...so be it. Seems incidental.
Well, it depends, sometimes the only way to get the ball is by a sliding tackle whereby you have to knock a player off his feet to get the ball.
Player to player contact in a sport that involves that contact in it's strategy and affects outcome makes that sport a contact sport.
Like I said. I'm not talking about affecting the outcome, I'm talking about THE RULES.
In basketball you're not allowed to make intentional contact with another player, in soccer you are.
Tennis - no
Football - yes
Soccer - yes
Bowling - no
Golf - no
Basketball - yes
Even a handshake could, theoretically, determine the outcome. If a player offers one where it is not warranted then it's possibly gamesmanship and both players mindsets could be affected by this.
It's you who argue semantics.
I know I am but what are you. This line of reasoning is prevalent in your discourse - and it's a bit childish.
You obviously don't understand the game of basketball yet I understand soccer. That much is captainobvious.
I know I am but what are you. This line of reasoning is prevalent in your discourse - and it's a bit childish. Anyway, I understand the rules of soccer with perfect clarity, even the administrative/transfer side of the game.
Yawn.

All this shit comes from you saying basketball isn't a contact sport yet contact is part of the sport and it's strategy.
You are wrong and everyone knows it.

Well, what you say regarding a sliding tackle is illegal.

No, Busy. That's a different sport.
Say, do you agree that I copied and pasted correctly earlier? Cos that's what it boils down to.

They lost.
They are down 0 - 3.
It was a great game but they fucked up. Shaq didn't play ffs. The Wizards made Alonzo look like Shaq. He had like 5 blocks. :(
I made a killing on tickets though. I bought extras and sold them at a premium. :naughty:
I'm going tonight as well. Game at 8pm. I don't think they'll sweep us.
