    The added time to the end of each half is called stoppage time ( ,most people refer to it as injury time). Time that is taken out of play when a player decides he's hurt or just wants to roll around on the ground. So if a player gets cut and it takes 2 mins to get him taped up and off the field then referee will usually determine that 2 minutes will be added for stoppage(injury time).

    Well I'll be damned. Mongo's a soccer-football-futbol fan. I'll bring a ball to cycle jam and we'll get a pick up match going. High five?

    I think its awesome they won. I've tried off and on to get into Premier League - even tried following a couple of teams - Aston Villa and Tottenham... But, I just couldn't do it. Its sort of like baseball to me. I like to be vaguely aware of it, and maybe occasionally see a game, but just can't hold on to the "excitement".

    On the other hand, I wish soccer in the U.S. would die in a big ugly fire. Nashville is on this kick (haha, punny) to try and get a pro soccer team and its not going well... All the hipsters and 20-somethings that got participation medals as children are like "move the Titans, move the Titans" to get a soccer team instead. They've even tried shutting down the fairgrounds to build a new stadium, which wouldn't bother me, except, they also want to shutdown and demolish the stock car track... That just ain't right. That track has been there over 100 years, in some form. Every time they make noise about either getting a pro team or moving the extremely amateur league team moved up, they're shot down.

    Chris, DC has a fooseball team and they're building them a new stadium and guess what, no one but a few hipsters, the mexicans and the euro trash even care that they're here. :D

    Yeah, kids playing der fooseball, I get it. It's fun to play. To watch it, holy f@ck. It's like watching a bunch of dudes in tiny shorts paint a garage.

    Every time I hear "popularity is growing because more kids are playing it than football", I think, "you know what else kids played? Duck, Duck, f'in' Goose... You gonna start a professional league around that too?"

    I always get the "why doesn't america care more about football?" from my Germans.

    "Because it's Gay! and you should feel lucky we don't because if we did, you'd never win a world cup ever again." is my standard reply. :D I don't get asked about it much anymore. :crackup:
