That is hilarious. We had many fun times over the foosball table
Baseball, they hated it.
First, get rid of that stupid offside rule, games of 5 or 6 points would be better.
The only time I watch soccer is when the Mexicans get together at the local park and play. Never any white people. It is enjoyable watching it live on a nice day at the park. I’d never watch it on TV.
If they tell us Kanye West, Nick Fuentes and Donald Trump hate it, that might help sway the undecideds to soccer!
I was on the Varsity Soccer Team at U of Washington. It’s fun to play but excruciating to watch.
We Americans are lucky to have a variety of sports which are actually fun and interesting.
Watching soccer is so stupid. The ball goes to one end of the field. Then it goes to the other end. Back and forth. Actual strategy is minimal.
Fugeddaboudditt.
The only times I ever saw soccer games I was in them. Summer camp as a little kid. /snicker
I love watching Japanese women’s volleyball ;^)
The great thing about soccer is that you can get all the exciting parts in 60 seconds of re-runs on the evening news.
I have it on good authority that “soccer moms” are just using the game to tire the little brats out so they go to sleep right after supper. So it does have a purpose, in that context.
Does ESPN wants Sunday Soccer to supplant Sunday Football?
What is fútbol meaning?
Fútbol is a direct Spanish translation of the English word football. It is an international team sport more commonly known in the United States and Canada as soccer.
Irish hurling is fast and exciting, too.
Simple. It’s not a contact sport.
All you Reinaldo Fan Boys & Gals, please don’t get me started.
Hockey, Rugby & Lacrosse with much more “rigorous” contact, are still with lite following in the US.
Easily lose a testicle or teeth playing rugby or hockey.
A Lacrosee ball or hockey puck can kill you.
Soccer? Not much to make a spark.
The EuroTrash Groupie chicks even smell bad.
Now that is funny.

Everyone agrees soccer is boring and America needs to fix it, but how? Here are ten simple ways to make soccer interesting, since the rest of the planet apparently remains intent on making us watch it every four years.
1. Goalies must be double amputees - no more scoreless draws! Any two limbs will do.
2. Supply one “enforcer” on each team with a taser - finally, the guy thrashing on the ground won’t be faking!
3. Add quicksand so that anyone who takes too long on a free kick gets sucked in - move or die.
4. Have a drunk hobo decide when each half starts and ends - bound to be more sensible than whatever the current system is.
5. In the event of a tie, the coaches must have a duel at midfield - if it ends in a tie, it’s not a sport.
6. If players pass the ball 10 times without shooting, the ball detonates - would put a stop to this asinine backward passing once and for all.
7. Release an enraged bull onto the field if things get boring - “Mbappe steps up to take the free kick and OH MY GRACIOUS HE JUST GOT GORED IN THE LIVER!”
8. Anyone who flops will be thrown into the Sarlacc Pit where they will discover a new definition of pain and suffering - there is no flopping in the Sarlacc Pit.
9. Give half the players jetpacks and half the players surface-to-air missiles - built in Lockheed-Martin sponsorship.
10. Instead of kicking a round ball towards a goal, players will carry or throw a more oblong ball towards a kind of “end zone” - definitely onto something here.
With just a few of these changes, soccer might have a real chance to finally catch on! Let us know any changes to the so-called “sport” that you would make!
If they ain’t spittin chiclets, it ain’t a sport.
A tie is like kissing your sister. (typed in my best Bear Bryant voice, quoting his response to a reporter when asking why he choose to go for a touchdown and Bama lost, when kicking an almost certain field goal would have tied the game)
"I’ve photographed a few local games"
Yes, I like basketball slightly for that reason. I used to like it a lot, but I got really anxious when my team was playing. Baseball is too slow.
