“What’s the score? Still 0-0? I thought so.”

hahaha! i have had this same conversation with soccer moms the last 10 years or so... to them, soccer is so exciting, something always going on... to me, it does not compare with football, not even baseball... they don't get how i can get into a baseball game... sheesh--with every pitch, every swing, every foul ball, every hit, every play, every fly, every out thrown, my son says, "mom--you experience about seven different emotions in 2 seconds of baseball!" and it is the same with football... every snap... every scramble... every sack, every yard gained, every yard lost, every roll out... every tackle, every catch... the clock running down... every kick, punt, penalty, fumble, interception... i cannot get enough! :)

To be fair, I get the same feeling from soccer -- if different degrees of boredom count as a separate emotion.
