Seeing as though they've been playing this game for about 1,000 years don't you think somebody should have smartened up and added a game clock? Stoppage time?

It is a running clock unlike any other sport that I know of. Should there be significant injury or stoppage time, they add a couple of minutes on to the end of the impacted half.
Yes, it is a bit weird but the rest of the world thinks nothing of it.

sorry, but soccer does nothing for me, don't watch it or care about it. I was once a pretty good goalie too.We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

I don't have a problem with female skaters. As long as they know the reverse cameltoe.

Im only a soccer fan every 4 years, for the duration of the World Cup . I actually like the nonstop clock; its refreshing after watching football games that only last an hour by the game clock, but seem to take 3.5 hours in real time.
Now if only someone could explain the whole offsides thing..it has never made any sense LOL LOL.

However......
I do have to admit being completely fascinated at how the European Soccer leagues work though (outside of the world cup and olympics). That fact that teams can get relegated to lower levels and lower level teams can actually make it to the top (in theory) is fantastic. There are 92 teams in England that actually have a chance to be champion. But, only 20 are in the top league and the 4 lower teams drop out every year so that teams from the lower divisions have a change to move back up.
Not to mention the fact that top teams from each country compete to be a true European champion (won by Real Madrid the last few years). I wish the NFL was setup like that. Even smaller cities could have a team and a dream,
