HFY - Humanity Fuck Yeah! is a community for writers and artists to showcase their talent in the HFY genre and for people who enjoy them.

Games have been lost for less.
You're literally punished for hitting the ball with your hand in football. Have to agree with you here, bar the terminology.
That's because we are too good at throwing balls with our hands. That's the exception that proves the rule.
hard disagree; "concept of throwing", imo, is accurately predicting some complicated physics and then making the split second adjustments to fling an object from your body elsewhere with enough force to be useful; that it's kicking rather than hand based doesn't seem relevant imo, it's still about accuracy and weird spin and dexterity.
