If anybody actually cared about soccer in this country perhaps there would be decent players on the teams.

Yup i know. My entire in-law's come from the Salvador and love it. (no racist pun intended, as Americans, our "foot-ball" is played with armor and the rules are similar to smear the queer laugh.gif ) it's the diversity/minority that's got a team for our country. The average American, don't give a "snicker-bar" about anything outside of our little mental space. tongue.gif Sad, but we live in and encourage an A.D.D. society.

hahaah meanie! i think im the only one who realized what u did too.....
I think I should have been born somewhere else b/c I think I'm one of the only Americans who really likes soccer over Football or Baseball tongue.gif. Don't follow it much, but I'd much rather be watching (or playing) a game of soccer than many other sports. And yeah, one of the main reasons the U.S. sucks at the sport is b/c there aren't nearly the amount of fans here as opposed to other countries.

the beauty of soccer is that when i watch it, i wana run out there and play it... i cant stand baseball and football or even basketball....

I'll be honest, if I see soccer on TV I turn it almost as quickly as I found it.


however I will play a game of soccer with my friends at the park any time smile.gif

I wish soccer was huge in the states. I just started playing again for the first time in 3 years and it feels great.

I think soccer is the best sport there is. I played soccer as a kid/teenager, and I was actually really good at it. It's too bad soccer in the US is like the metric system. It's a great idea, the whole rest of the world is on board with it, yet we just can't quite seem to get it.
I liked the Manu game at Russia. That's the only full soccer game I've watched since the last World Cup.


I would also like to watch some Galaxy games since they represent LA... but never get around to catch it.

yea mate...seriously, soccer in north america isnt really considered a professional sport. Like in the UK, u guys got barclays, and eufa, scottish league. Here, we have like...small leauges for bigger cities..and MLS (majour league soccer). Soccer in Canada is starting to pickup more and more. But you really dont even hear about it on the sports reel in the news. Like soccer is one of the biggest sports for you guys over there, here, pretty much every big city has a hockey team, baseball team, football (american football) team...So its not like over there when you have a soccer team as one of the biggest (if not the biggest) team for the city.

But i agree, north americans playing soccer is a bit of a joke. I mean..common..look at the LA Galaxy....they paid a rediculus amount of $ to get David Beckham on their team, and they arent even doing that good. I mean, some no name kid from Toronto FC faked him out and scored without even trying. Soccer here if it ever does pickup is gonna be exactly like every other majour sport, its gonna be all about $.

Yeah, just not here. Nothing against the sport or anything, it's incredibly difficult to maintain that pace for so long but I'm into it just as much as ice hockey or basketball.

soccer is a joke. all you gotta do is learn how to fake a fall and throw your hands up after you fall.

That's a ridiculous thing to say.

Go check some stats on how much ground a soccer player covers in a match, compare that to NFL then tell me it's a joke.

Players regularly cover 10KM+ in a match, much of it sprinting.

They don't just come on for one play, then sit down for 20 minutes drinking Gatorade. If anything is a joke sport, it's american 'football' mate!

Alright I'm just going to say this now and hope it helps the situation. Let's not turn this thread into an argument over wheather one sport is better than another. The difference in opinions here is mostly due to how/where we were raised/live. I played soccer all through middle school, so that's why I'm more apt to enjoy the game than someone else who might have watched Football every week and would obviously be more used to and prefer that game.

x2, but the sad part is, that i'd need to be trashed to watch it on tv laugh.gif

Luckily for me watching TV is something i dont often do smile.gif

I say we should combine the 2 "footballs". It'd be like hockey but with no ice laugh.gif That's a game i could get into biggrin.gif
