A 3-2 soccer match has as much scoring as a 21-14 football game. < American sports fan mode>
Dude, there's like seven times as many points in football!

When you break it down, a typical NFL game has roughly 90-100 plays. Over a 3+ hour period, that's about 1 play every 2 minutes. And people have the nerve to say that soccer is too slow?
(Don't even get me started on the pace of play in baseball...)

Dude, there's like seven times as many points in football! Yeah, and the players get brutally injured to gain them. It's violent and suspenseful.
