So Messi is Jordan and Ronaldo is Lebron?
I'm not a Tennis guy at all....can't even told you who won Wimbledon last year. But, I remember a few years ago that one match that lasted 3 days because the two guys couldn't break each others serve. That match will go down in Tennis history because of its length. You play till a winner is decided...plain and simple.
They played a 138 game 5th set....
lmao
if anything, missy is like lebron pre 2012 - gaudy stats but chokes under pressure and has nothing to show for it
Choke under pressure like getting injured early in a final?
Same could be said the other way around. Staters think every single game needs to have a winner 'cause they are already used to that, even though it makes more sense for a long compe ion, like soccer leagues or regular seasons in professional US sports, to contabilize draws in the standings.
We barely tolerate ties in real sports like football, baseball (yes, it's happened in extremely rare cases), and hockey (before the NHL invented the shootout) where there's actual drama, tension and athletic ability on display. No way are we going to sit through 0-0 ties in floptrot where both teams spend all their energy on flopping and parking the bus instead of scoring.btw, I don't understand Staters irrational problem with draws, tbh.
Except for the biggest amount of championships of any professional soccer player in the history of the Sport.
More like Messi is Jordan/Lebron and Ronaldo is Kobe, tbh. Actually, that's a pretty damn good analogy, tbh.

So your opponent purposely injuring you now equals to choking? Ok
Yep, club les. Where the best level of soccer is displayed.
Why do you put so much stock into NT compe ion? Tournaments are played once every 4 years and teams are less compe ive than their club counterparts.
More like missing a penalty in the final shootout...
Should have pulled a Benchnaldo and let his mates win for him imho.
Because in football that's when the stakes are at their highest. They're the only compe ions that really matter. You know that, you just don't want to admit it because your boy usually fails to show up for them.Yep, club les. Where the best level of soccer is displayed.

Honestly, why would I ever give a about random club cups and leagues that happen every year all the way in ing Europe?

Most hardcore fans prefer for his club to win the Champions League/Copa Libertadores than see his NT win the World cup.
And lol at "Messi doesn't show up for the WC". He has a WC Golden Ball, you can argue if he deserved it or not (he did), but you can't deny that he "showed up" enough for him to be in the discussion and eventually win it, tbh.
LMAO @ dissecting D league povertyball results
Meanwhile yesterday and today, we saw 14 goals in 4 matches of champions league football.
My bad, I shouldn't really expect you to know how it feels when your NT wins a le...its been like what, 30 years for you guys? (You can thank your boy for that"Only compe ions that really matter"

that was ing shameless tbh..even he was embarrassed to accept itAnd lol at "Messi doesn't show up for the WC". He has a WC Golden Ball, you can argue if he deserved it or not (he did), but you can't deny that he "showed up" enough for him to be in the discussion and eventually win it, tbh.
Actually the fans from the countries with the most cups are the ones that are hardcore enough to prefer club success over country succes. Fans from countries that have yet to taste WC success are the ones that care more about their NT. A guy like lefty would give his left nut for Irak/Iran, or whatever terrorist country he is from, to win the WC, tbh.My bad, I shouldn't really expect you to know how it feels when your NT wins a le...its been like what, 30 years for you guys?

Some people might be like that, some aren't. The fact is that stakes are way higher in NT compe ions, and rightfully so, since you have a whole nation counting on you.
Btw, Shout out to my terrorist lefty, tbh.
Problem with awarding points for ties in a league table, whether it's a soccer league, hockey league, baseball league, whatever, is that it promotes cheap tactics/strategies. Baseball, for example. Instead of a manager being forced into a difficult decision of whether or not to bring in his closer in a bottom of the 9th, tie game situation (or risk saving him for later innings), the decision becomes automatic. In the NFL, a team would just milk the clock with a run heavy or dink and dunk attack if they were facing a long drive to win (think of how passive teams get just before half time in that situation).
In soccer, teams just park to preserve ties. It's cheap.
There's really no excuse for ties, in any sport.
FAKE NEWS!
SAD !
An Algerian subs ute scored vs Germany in the 2014 WC.
Messi didn't
