You're a goal sneak in more general ways imo, and I doubt
you even know what the off side rule is, in football or in life.
Without the off side rule everyone would just congregate
around each end and the mid field would just thump the ball
from penalty box to penalty box. You're talking like a girl.

How dull. It's just a mad rush for the puck after it's been
put into a scoring area. You have to start your run from in
front of the last defender before the ball is played to avoid
the off side trap or it's just a free for all. Small wonder
hockey is just a girls game in England.

You're still talking like a girl.
