The award is there as a goal to strive for, but it shouldn't be the reason why you conduct yourself and reach out to your community and beyond the way you do. - Lil' Lavery [more]

Re: 2014 Lessons Learned: The Negative

Can we NOT NOT NOT have a tiebreaker be something that is so subjective and prone to error as penalty points? Obviously a penalty created the tie in the first place, so why in the world would it be what breaks the tie?

I know, the assumption is that one team played a "cleaner match" than the other. However, given the increased number of ways to earn a foul this year, the large percentage that even one foul counts for and the huge number of frustrated teams who were affected by inconsistent calls (I'm not dissing the refs, there's only so many things they can see and do at once, and if they are half as prone to making mistakes as I am...) it seems like it would make more sense to have assist points be the tiebreaker. That is the mission of this game, after all.

Otherwise they would have named it Penal Desist
