[ITA] Serie A 2013/2014 (49 Viewers)

[Hist]

Not me.

Don't know much about what the other sports do, but I find the NFL system interesting.

Vieri, Samuel and toldo turned out to be good deals for them. The rest range from meh to cack.


We need one for Moggi and one for Galliani.

what have dc united been like under him?

The worst the club has ever been.

European soccer could learn from the American sports system. Everyone complains about two-horse races and then goes on to diss the American system.

Never going to happen.

 

[Buck Fuddy]

Yeah, Moratti used to be a spender. And Thohir has money but I doubt this is going to be a sugar daddy thing, he's not going to spend wildly like PSG or City.

Personally, I'm going to be skeptical of this for quite some time. Like I said before, I'm not really happy about some random guy who doesn't know Inter owning the club, who's never there, who is only in it for business reasons & not passion. And based on what I heard from some Indonesians & some fans of other sports teams he owns, they aren't particularly crazy about him.

No sane fan is going to like that.



Which means about 80% of the fans like it very much.

That's honestly true, I feel like an extreme minority in my views on this subject. I've seen a lot of support for the move & not enough criticism or even just skepticism. I would imagine though that there might be more people against it in Italy than there are among foreign fans.

 

[JuveJay]

Fans at certain sized clubs like two things - winning trophies and signing players. Usually you can keep them happy with one or the other.

they meant paper scudetti

 

[Mark]

Have the major media outlets in Italy even mentioned the fake passports, illegal phone taps, farsopoli prescrizione yet or they're just wanking over MoRATti and just "forgetting" that part during that A-hole's era?

hopefully horseteeth dies soon and so does this club of shitstains :xfinger:

 

[Zacheryah]

Like everyone here, im mad as fuck about the inter trebble and CL victory in a playstyle and mentality that mirrors 95'96juve

 

[Red]

Adjustments made to the interpetation/implementation of the territorial discrimination rules.

More suspended sentences, more focus on closing aprropriate sections of stadia (rather than the whole thing), more attention paid to how many people are engaged in the chanting to determine the seriousness of the offence.

All that happened because they tossed us out so that too is tainted.

I think the American sports system is by far the best system around. Not only in keeping the level of Competition distributed equally through Drafts, but they have in general always been far more advanced than Europeans. They were the first to realize the value of commercialization and realized the importance of adopting a 'challenge' system that ensures almost always, that the team that wins is the better team, and frequently as possible. Europe, and especially Serie A would be wise to take a few lessons about how sports are managed in the US.

Serie A is so backwards, outdated, out of touch and behind in so many things that it is missing out on a lot of potential revenue. But I guess they prefer it that way.

It's better, but I still think it's a bit much to treat territorial discrimination the same as racism. Racism is a serious issue that needs to be tackled. It's not the same as groups of fans having banter with each other over where they were born. I think the problem is though that people outside Italy tend to not understand this, so FIGC has to take a hardline stance for the league's reputation & global appeal.

To be honest, the one thing I might like to take from American sports is the instant replay system. Would be helpful & cut down on things like wrongly disallowed goals/'gol di Muntari', botched penalty calls (one way or the other), diving, etc. The main negative thing is that it would disrupt the flow of the game, which I'm sure would be an argument against.

I'm not much into the whole "modern football" concept but that's one thing I think I'd be okay with. It sucks that you can't really go more than a couple games these days without something ridiculously controversial happening.

There's nothing i hate more in the NBA than the Instant replay rule. What makes sport beautiful are mistakes, the contreversy, the moment they adapat such rules in football it will be dead.

Not to forget how it's run.
