Slickarick Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Soccer is a beautiful game. With some of if not the most passionate fans on the planet. And this is coming from a guy who coached football for 12 years before coaching soccer for 4 and falling in love with the sport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirtFalcon Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Soccer is about half as exciting as stirring up a fireant mound and watching it for two hours ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I finally loaded my coffee table with junk food snacks and dug in to attempt a complete soccer game on TV. Still only made it through about 16 minutes worth. The coach of the winning team even looked like he wanted to leave. Ref in white coat flat looked like he was ticked off for being called in to work the game. No joke he was quizzing himself with flashcards. Truestorie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBizzle Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Love soccer. Grew up a baseball/football guy. Never understood it. My kids got into it and I fell in love with it. Watched the US men beat Mexico and Canada this weekend to win the Nations League Tournament. It's a beautiful game and it takes a lot of skill. But I also love hockey and think it's the best game on the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveTV1 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I'm beginning to think that soccer isn't as possible all over the world as people claim it is. It might only be, because all you need is a round ball to play it. Today while eating lunch, they were showing the top 10 highlights of soccer matches over the weekend. Only two of the games appeared to have over 100 fans in the stands. It looked just like it did during the pandemic when they closed off the stadiums. That tells me that people love to play it, but they hate to watch it unless it's a Championship game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe soccer will ever compete with football, baseball, basketball and hockey as a spectators sport in America not only because most people here think it's boring, but also because all the other major sports overlap and there just isn't room for it without overlapping the other major sports on TV .... soccer in America is a niche sport that will never be more than an activity for kids to play and parents and grandparents to watch ... while yawning ....
