Are you saying that New Zealanders are sore loses?

Not as a general thing. Poor sportsmanship is a hallmark of footie, not rugby (which is why you never read about rugby riots in the press).

So England lost to France. I guess England's players were still shaken by the explosive revelations from the Meghan's and Harry's documentary.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Argentina won during a dorky penalty kick "shootout". FiFA needs to change their rules to a "first score" win during overtime.

E-mail them, I'm sure they'll get right on that.

France and Argentina both have universal healthcare.

Ha! But, sure, I will do that; any replies I will post here.

For those who are interested, here is the FIFA website outlining the "Laws of the Game":

FIFA -- Laws of the Game

Any proposed rule changes must first be approved by the national football association of one's host country (in my case, the United States of America) before being considered by the IFAB.

I am going to propose a "sudden death play" rule that will decide the winner in any overtime, which is similar to American football, as opposed to a "penalty kick shootout".

Can you imagine Jared and Elon being interested in the game or are they there to beg money from the guys in white sheets after the game?

Don't want to lose on kicks?  Get a better goalie.
