Yes, soccer is not nearly as exciting as watching cars drive in circles for three hours- much of the time under a caution flag.

Soccer certainly is not as exciting as two people bouncing a yellow ball back and forth. I love the needlessly complicated score keeping in that one.

And nothing comes close to edge-of-the-seat action as trying to get a small ball into a hole in the ground. Wow.

Yes it is almost as good as watching your grass grow. I really want a vuvuzulu cd.

Yeah, but in car racing you get to see a really exciting wreck every once in a while.

Well said.

About “American” football (as it is known outside of the United States):

Are you aware the ball is in play for only 11 minutes or less as these ninnies dress in bulletproof costumes and crash helmets? And folks pay a zillion dollars to attend 11 minutes of this?

I love soccer (officially known as “Association Football”).

I have just changed into my fire retardant suit.

My best regareds to you, bobjam.
