Soccer is a poor man's sport...that's why it's the most popular sport in the world.
I stopped playing soccer when I was 7...simply because I grew out of it. It's mostly for 4-5 yr olds who are filled w/ shit loads of energy and parents put them out on the field so they can run around look cute and get a little dirty and wear themselves out.

Tell that to the parents of traveling soccer teenagers. About $8K/year.
