Well, to me the offside rule is kinda like if baseball said that anyone who hit the ball "over the fence" (now a homerun) would be called out!!! Yeah, if ya'll like a short passin' game and alot of traffic jams then keep it the way it is... If you want somethin more exciting than let 'um attempt to pass downfield to a striker... In American football that is called "going deep" and it doesn't ruin American football so why should it soccer??? And long pases, contary to some folks opinions, ain't all that easy to connect...
