Last time I followed soccer was back in the 60s.
They didn’t have the spray then, only the sponge.
Back then, when I told my Italian born boss I didn’t like soccer, he said that I “didn’t get it.”
He was right.
I still don’t “get it.”
Never ceases to amaze me how when one player touches another, the “touchee’s” arms and legs seem to explode in four different directions at once followed by interminiable rolling and agonizing on the field.
Would much rather watch hockey, *especially* the playoffs.

yes, Hockey, loved to play when I was young.

You are right, I don't get it - Quarterbacks having special protection, One team of guys to play offense, anther team of guys to play defense. What pansies, as bad as the diving no good lazy-ass soccer players who have the Hollywood syndrome every time someone shows them up
