That is the biggest issue right there... The sports is what 100 years old... as in the competition level of World Cup etc... 1930 i believe was the first cup... won by Uruguay. But I know they won two other ones previous to those when it was an Olympic sport, before the concept of the world cup was made...and the FIFA later gave them the wins as a world cup... hence why Uruguay has 4 stars. I always though Argentina just gave them their two stars.

Anyways.. when you try and change a sport with world wide recognition it goes horribly wrong.... I was going to keep typing something but got distracted with some cool info.
