Its kind of large and obnoxious
Ok, I'm a huge fan of University of Alabama football (I would assume Canadians don't understand why college football is so big here but if you're from Alabama you're a bigger fan of college football than the NFL for the most part, its the only show in town. )
Anyway, Tennessee is one of our two biggest rivals. We beat them Saturday 12-10. Through a number of near miracles Tennessee managed to have a try at a field goal to win from 40 plus yards with like two seconds left and it would have been a nightmare, were undefeated with a chance at the national championship, ranked number 1 in the country, they're 3-4, our rivals, etc. So the guy with his helmet off is Terrence Cody our nose tackle, 6'5 355, kind of a cult hero cause he's so huge and a good player. He blocked the field goal, his second blocked field goal of the day and threw off his helmet and ran all the way down the field. The cheerleader looking guy photoshopped in is Lane Kiffin, gigantic gigantic douchebag, coach of Tennessee, former Raiders coach. The machete was also photoshopped in, although I doubt I have to make that clear.
No, we don't. However, you guys probably don't understand why we'll beat the shit out of each other over hockey allegiances. I don't really understand that either, but I do know I feel a sudden rush of derision every time I see an Oilers or Flames fan.
Your sig still annoys me, despite the satisfactory explaination.
I kind of like hockey in a way but never watch itMaybe it is a bad game for TV, I don't know. I used to go to UAH (University of Alabama-Huntsville) games when I was a kid and lived there. It was like the only sport they were good in, like Division two or something but they'd get Canadian kids to come down on scholarship. Obviously not the really good ones but they were a pretty good team.
I don't understand the offside rule in hockey. I played this NHL 2008 game for a while when I rented and kept getting offside calls, I get the jist of offside in most sports but it seemed different in hockey![]()
Finally I can be of some use to this site. When the attacking team has a player cross the blue-line before the puck, he must vacate the zone (by crossing the blue-line and going into the neutral zone [the area between the two blue lines]) before the puck can be brought into the offensive zone by the attacking team. If he does not the play is blown dead because he is offside. Does that make sense?
This explains it as well if mine didn't make sense. Ignore the part about the offsides pass because that rule was taken out a few years ago.
Offside (ice hockey) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ok that seems simple enough, I guess I'm used to more like soccer offside rules where its just if the guy is past the last defender before the pass is made so I'd wonder why I'd get a call if there was nobody past the last defender.
