Moronic; utterly moronic. >> >> > You idiot! Fucking goal sneak. If it's against the rules right now, then go ahead and enforce the rule. But it's a stupid rule. The game would be better without it. There are similar rules in hockey. First, there's also an "offside": when the attacker is past the opponents' blue line before the puck. Second, there's the two-line pass: when an attacker is beyond the center (red) line, and his teammate passes to him from behind his own blue line. But there's no "moving" line, as in soccer. The National Hockey League is considering eliminating the two-line pass rule. I think they should; the remaining offside rule is perfectly adequate by itself.
