Good grief. Anyone who thinks soccer is more “socialist” than other sports neither understands socialism, nor capitalism.

Soccer would be cooler if they played by the old rules and used the skull of a captured enemy as the ball.

Those who say soccer sucks do so because they are unfamiliar with the game. Soccer is a game of true beauty.
Take football, for example. It is highly scripted by a multitude of coaches and players actually play for 20 seconds and then huddle to get the scripted play from the coach. Soccer, on the other hand, is a players game, with players devising strategy and making plays.
Soccer is really an awesome game once you understand it.

And every now and then it's good for one of these . . .
