I agree with Deahler there is no other sport where a CHAMPION is decided by a one on one do or die shot.
Glimmertwin - i have never seen a basketball game go in to OT and 5 players from each team go to the line to shoot one freethrow each to decide the game. If there has been a game where the result rested on a critical freethrow during the game or very close to the end like that (which i dont doubt) then it was a very very rare occurance.
The fact of the matter is NO one i mean NO one likes to lose in PK's after playing 90min (or however long) of good solid soccer. If you are on the other side and just won the game your happy that you won but in my view you did not beat the team straight up. Either way i think PK's are a part to the game so until that changes we all will have to deal with them win or lose!
To play the game is good, to win the game is great, to LOVE the game is the greatest!
