lol sad isn't it.....and it makes it even worse when you think about that it's every four years as opposed to yearly like the sports you mentioned.

I also hate the officiating rules when you get two yellow cards in different games you automatically miss the next game and getting cards for lame shit like kicking the ball away (time wasting) or a little push after the play or even for arguing. I know they got that in NBA (technicals) and NHL (unsportsmanlike) but the penalties don't seem as severe in those sports (free throw and 2 min penalty) as they do in soccer where technically a player can get thrown out of the game, put his team down by a man and miss the next game for these ticky tacky penalties.
