It doesn't offend in any way. Not understanding (by me) does not = offensive (to me) in my world.

Of course no one "has to watch" anything. I guarantee you this, for all my disparaging comments made to soccer bashers on FR over the years, I have never EVER had a negative comment for someone that just said something like: "Soccer?? tried watching a few games and really not my cup of tea". No problem with that whatsoever.

There is a clock in beach volleyball - its the one on my wall that counts down (or maybe up) to the time my wife is coming home and I have to turn it off.

I went to a fight one time and a soccer game broke out! ROFL

Other than that, I find soccer to be VERY boring and that is especially true when one guy kicks the ball directly to an opposing player. I call that stupidity. What comes to mind is, ‘What was he thinking,’ if he was thinking at all. ;-)

Yeah me too. Wifey is not the fan of BV that I am. She makes me change the channel.
I don’t care for the political reasons people give for not enjoying soccer. Why does politics get interjected into everything. Watch what you like, play what you enjoy and are reasonably capable of playing. I play baseball, not basketball or soccer because i would run out of wind! I can sprint short distances all day but full court basketball or soccer is too much for my 40 plus body.
