Re: Why is the officating in soccer so horrible?

that offsides call on twellman was just criminal. I don't think that it was slanted one way though, cause the red card that the T&T player got on the harsh side

Spot on. Twellman was ripped and that was a brilliant team goal taken away. I believe the T&T player deserved the red card b/c it was a very clear/excellent scoring opportunity. If you gave a team the choice of a player coming in one-on-one with your goalie or a yellow card they'll take the yellow card everytime ... you've got to be harsh when the rare soccer breakaway is stopped by a criminal defensive play.
