OK, just seems that way to me.
Baseball and basketball don't allow games to end in ties.(with the exception of the 2003 all star game-- a travesty).
Playoff NFL games do not end in ties.
A tie means nobody won. no team was better than the other in that game based on the score.
The popularity of a sport is a matter of what the spectator wants to watch. Most in this country prefer something other than soccer.
Try the cannolis.
A tie means it was a tie, there's nothing socialistic about it, it's a tie. Maybe being raised in a hockey household I accept ties as simply part of the game. And depending on your soccer league (and hockey league) they might not end in ties, many have what's called the "shootout" five guys in turn getting break aways on the other goalie. They make sure there isn't a tie, but I never liked them, it's like switching to a different game in a desperate search for finality, they are exciting but I don't like them as a tie breaking method and hope the NHL never goes to it.
Exactly, it's all about what the people want to watch, Americans aren't into low action high contemplation game. No hit, just how it is. I don't think it's a problem with soccer or America, it's just how it is.
I don't cook, but I do like a good cannoli.
