"(Will FReepers ever approve of soccer?)
Most Americans don't "get" soccer. It seems like a bunch of guys running back and forth, here and there, with very few scores being made. This will probably change over time since many more kids in the U.S. play the game now, and the increasing hispanic population will accelerate this trend.
Will Europeans ever appreciate American football?
Have you ever watched the Minnesota Vikings play? :)"
My father loves every kind of sport.
He enjoys American football and baseball just like he gets excited over ice hockey and european soccer.
I too like sports, but for some reason, until the age of 25 or something like that, I failed to grasp what great games you Americans actually have developed.
At that particular time, my father explained to me how American football all works and I got really fascinated. I understood the game featured on TV and got really sucked into the drama of it all!
I seldom watch it nowadays, but we still have it here on TV in Sweden (despite the fact it's, most often, only accessible through cable TV - sadly enough)
Salutations from the sport loving nation of Sweden!
