Soccer is fun. I liked playing it when I was a kid and like coaching it now. It never got in the way of the sports I was serious about when I was a kid, and I've battled hard to make sure my own son is better at baseball than soccer since he doesn't like football.
I can watch about half a game once a week on TV. It's interesting for me because I've coached at a medium level of play (skilled 14 year olds) and I compare what they're doing to what I can get out of the kids, hopefully learning something in the process. That's about all I can watch though. It's a little boring after a bit and there's a lot of gayness going around that makes me feel guilty for watching somehow.
Just thought I'd throw that little confession out there. You all can blow me. -
Wow, just wow. If you take anything that dumb xenophobic cunt has to say seriously, you need to off yourself. Actually, she sounds right up your alley Toppy. No wonder no one takes the right seriously.topdawgnc said:

What I find amusing is how pissed off the soccer tards get when people bash soccer. There are sports I like that other people don't and if they trash those sports I don't give a fuck. You assholes are like Islamist or other religious fanatics that insist people believe the same shit you do.
In fact, the main reason I bash soccer is to push the buttons of people like you.

Soccer is not "catching on." Headlines this week proclaimed "Record U.S. ratings for World Cup," and we had to hear -- again -- about the "growing popularity of soccer in the United States."
The USA-Portugal game was the blockbuster match, garnering 18.2 million viewers on ESPN. This beat the second-most watched soccer game ever: The 1999 Women's World Cup final (USA vs. China) on ABC. (In soccer, the women's games are as thrilling as the men's.)
Run-of-the-mill, regular-season Sunday Night Football games average more than 20 million viewers; NFL playoff games get 30 to 40 million viewers; and this year's Super Bowl had 111.5 million viewers.
Remember when the media tried to foist British soccer star David Beckham and his permanently camera-ready wife on us a few years ago? Their arrival in America was heralded with 24-7 news coverage. That lasted about two days. Ratings tanked. No one cared.
If more "Americans" are watching soccer today, it's only because of the demographic switch effected by Teddy Kennedy's 1965 immigration law. I promise you: No American whose great-grandfather was born here is watching soccer. One can only hope that, in addition to learning English, these new Americans will drop their soccer fetish with time.

Read an article in WSJ or someplace last month, and it had stuff from post WWI where people thought doughboys would bring back the love, along with the clap, from Europe.topdawgnc said:
People have been saying that sincePurpleJ said:Soccer will be the most popular sport in America some day. Maybe you should kill yourself before that happens.

I know, great linkage as always.

My family came here in the 1800s and I'm watching soccer. Can't wait for the US to become majority Hispanic, just to watch her head explode.

I guess you "laughing" comes across on the internet as a angry rant. Nothing in your post suggested anything but being a pissed off soccer homo.PurpleJ said:
