Must be watching a bit too much Mexican League soccer on the Spanish-language channels here in the USA.

If you've watched the Barclays Premiership soccer from England, they are definitely far more exciting, mostly because you have teams like Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Aston Villa bring in the best players in the world to play there.

But not quite as boring as NASCAR.

Boy, what a snoozer that sport is!

You know, I would agree with you to a point. We American like scoring and rig our sports for even more scoring. For example; in football we changed rules in the kicking game, added 2 point conversions, pass interference, etc. In basketball we put in a shot clock and three point line. In baseball we lowered the mound, shrunk the strike zone, shortened the fences, juiced the ball and the players.
