No. Take it back to Europe or perhaps the third world.

There is football(the real kind) baseball hockey. And most important the shooting sports

In the words of Cole Younger (Cliff Robertson ‘the Great Northfield minnesota raid). “The national pastime is shooting, and always will be”.

Women’s soccer is gritty and tough. Men’s soccer is effeminate, with metrosexuals faking injuries and falling down with wails.

The problem is that compared to the English Premier League, the MLS is like watching Single-A league baseball.

You got to love this girl. Cute and mean. I bet she would wear any guy out both on the field and off.

Methinks Galaxy got robbed. Soccer is SO BORING. Now with all the illegals in the country, I imagine in 15-20 years we’ll be hearing all about it though.

Refuse to watch a game that features under-clothed Brits and Europeans. Yuck and shiver.

Oh good grief, I'm 63, and I never knew one single co-worker, friend, family member, whoever, in all my years who ever mentioned watching a soccer game that didn't involve their kids playing in a youth league. Not one. If you asked Americans who Beckham is, a very sizable percentage would have no clue. Soccer is a long, long, long way from gaining any kind of national recognition in the U.S.

Similarly, I doubt American sports like American football will ever take hold in Britain or other countries. Canada is the only foreign country that likes American-style football. When I pass sports fields in the area and I see young kids who aren't Hmong playing pickup soccer, then I'll know soccer has gained a foothold. But not before that.
