Another reason soccer is so popular throughout the world is because it is a poor man's sport; it only takes one ball to play it.

While I'd like to agree with you, I must say the following.

American Football - 1 ball and no special equipment (you can play tackle bare, or you can play touch)

One of my grandaughters plays soccer. One of my grandsons plays football - the real football.

Soccer - Yuck, though they are some of the best athletes in the world. The game is just too slow paced and boring

Baseball can be boring...and I grew up playing it. But there are a lot of games, 162 of them a season. IMO that's too much. Playoff baseball on the other hand is VERY fun to watch.

To each his own I suppose...

Lumpy and I have had the soccer discussion already regarding our boy. If he wants to play the "sport" I will send him to millitary school.
Soccer is a sport for people that have no actual athletic abillity except for running fast and not using their hands.

There are way, way, WAY too many commercials in NFL games. Nothing but spots for shitty beer and boner pills, like we really need to see any more of those. It is absolutely ridiculous. This is another reason I'm starting to watch football more on Saturdays than Sundays.

However, I'd rather watch the commercials of a football game than soccer. **** soccer. Leave that shit to the third world goat herders.

See this is so stupid. Elite world class soccer players are far and away better athletes than NFL players.

I don't think everyone should like Soccer, its no big deal...I get it. What I don't understand is why people have to make up stupid shit like the bolded comment instead of saying they simply don't like it.

I REFUSE to have a soccer sticker on the back of my SUV!
