The Research Story That Followed The Gollum Examination

Technically, we could blame this one on a Spaniard.

But I'll give you one guess as to where it was published:

Francisco Belda Maruenda, a family doctor in Murcia, said in order for the offside rule to be applied correctly referees and linesmen must keep at least five moving objects in their visual fields at the same time -- two attacking players, two defenders and the ball.

But the human eye and brain cannot process all the necessary information to do it, and then make an instant, correct decision.

"This is beyond the capacity of the human eye, which may explain why so many offside decisions are controversial," Maruenda said in a report in the British Medical Journal.


Thank God I found something worthy to add to an entry involving soccer and the Brits. Maybe the next thing they'll research is if this entry was the first time the words "worthy" and "soccer" appeared in the same sentence.



I'm going to go out on a hunch and guess that this photograph was not part of the porn found in Jacko's ranch. But I for one would never turn down a shot of Brandi "Apparently No E In" Chastain.
