Co-State Champions - WTF?

[Jimmy Serrano]

Penalty Kicks are part of the game. It's the same game.

I thought he was talking about FG's in football.

The penalty kicks in soccer is just one of the myriad of problems I have with the sport (single most glaring issue is putting me to zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.........................). NHL playoffs go into the wee hours of the AM to determine a winner. I hated the implementation of penalty shots during the regular season, but it is what it is.

Soccer puts you to sleep but 15 innings of baseball doesn't? I would be suicidal if I had to watch that much baseball.

I think he just misnamed Penalty Kicks as Place Kicks. Place Kicks and Penalty Kicks in soccer are two different things. I think PKs are exciting. And after 90 minutes plus to overtimes, enough is enough. You have to decide a winner. It's not like they are nominating a player from each side to play checkers in the middle of the field.

And I will say something else. High School soccer is not exactly on the cutting edge of the sport. I have no idea why CT HSs do what they do, but

I was at that all star game in Yankee Stadium a few years back. I left somewhere around 2am and got to my hotel in midtown and saw the ending. Was crazy. But still better than a tie.

Imagine if that basketball game between UConn and Syracuse in March of 2009 at MSG ended in a tie after 2 OT’s…

Do they do this in any other sport?

College football has had many co-National Champions.

Of course that's because they haven't played each other
