Soccer. Most boring game ever created. Watching a Chess match is more exiting.

Hell, I’d rather watch two old men at a retirement home play checkers than watch the finale of the World Cup.

OTOH, for the vast majority of people, Soccer is a far better participation sport than football. Flag, or touch football (no contact) comes close for participation — but, it is at least as boring to watch as soccer.

The EPL blows away World Cup soccer. The problem with the World Cup is that the teams are not very cohesive since they don’t play that much together, whereas in club soccer the game flows much better because of the familiarity of the players with each other.
