For those interested, there's an excellent discussion of the offside trap at http://topdrawersoccer.com/NationalT...p=152#more-152.
It uses the recent MNT loss to Argentina as a source for illustrative examples and includes links to information on the corresponding law, current interpretation, and evolution of the law over the past 150 years.
For such a simple law, it's amazing the difficulties it creates for referees, defenders, and soccer fans (parents on the sidelines ;) )!
