By soccer standards it was more exciting than average, though. I enjoyed some of the players going HAM and knocking heads and shit. Loved The Great Messi doing shit all in the biggest game of his life. LOL Overall this world cup didn't convince me that the opinions I've formed about the sport can be changed, however. Despite living in KC now, I doubt I ever make it to a Sporting game. I'm sure it's even worse live, and with lesser talent. |

I will say this, though. The sport is certainly amusing. It's a wonderful reflection of the world's cultures. It's entertaining if you're otherwise bored.

Good one in a Seattle. Hate the Sounders but they earned another win.

Chances make it exciting because scoring a goal is so rare. Every time a goal is about to be scored people hold their breath. You don't see the same excitement when a basketball, football or baseball team score. You know the other team will make a run and do the same. |

With Di Maria injured Argentina had no one really capable of getting the ball to Messi in space, not really his fault...

The only thing that counts towards a win in soccer is putting the ball over the goal line inside the confines of the goal, one of the hardest things to do in all sports. Complaining about the run of play in soccer is analogous to complaining that some biddy from the old country cooks all day to serve just a few people a lovingly prepared meal because McDonalds can pump out Big Macs at like 50-100 an hour.
