Tend to agree. I’ve never seen a sport like soccer where the goal (no pun intended) seems to be to deny satisfaction to the viewer. If the most interesting and exciting parts of the game are the situations where someone takes a shot on goal (a good shot on goal,) then why do the rules make it so hard for there to be more than a few legitimate shots on goal per game?

If they would make the goal about 6-8 feet wider and 2-3 feet taller (even if they increased these dimensions in metric), I might watch soccer. I just want the game to have some REAL football scores. Like 35-31. These 1-0 snooze-fests will never attract my eyeballs!!
