- balloonknottSalvaged from archive21 Jun 2006, 18:12The fact that it is a minority sport (giving that the best possible spin of interest/viewership) is easily understandable. Take NFL Football, a complex undertaking involving offensive and defensive formations where individual players must make instant "reads" and adjustments. This takes not only incredible physical skills, but brains as well. At the opposite end of the spectrum dwells soccer, a minimalist game in every sense of the term - kick ball, run, stand, watch, run, kick ball, stand - on and on and on ad nauseam. It takes absolutely no brains, recognition, or hand-eye coordination to play, and it is therefore ideally suited to nitwit euros and the slovenly illiterate primitives of south america, africa and the middle east where it is popular. When you think about it, no soccer player ever born could ever step onto a football field without leaving on a stretcher, whereas any number of NFL players could play soccer all day long at any level (of course with the exception of lard-asses like Tony Siragusa or a few others prone to inertia). If you would care to offer any evidence to the contrary, i would be happy to educate you. Comments? Opinions?

Well soccer isn't really a sport in America, at least one worth watching, but in like every other part of the world it is. It's more than just running and kicking, lets not forget the off-side rule and the drunken riots afterward. Personally, i find the game EXTREMLY boring but they do have some bad ass injuries.

Take NFL Football, a complex undertaking involving offensive and defensive formations where individual players must make instant "reads" and adjustments. This takes not only incredible physical skills, but brains as well. its only a minority sport in america. its the favorite sport in the rest of the world. and about the second statement. you just contradicted yourself. the fact that the formation are there is that so that each player knows what to do. that way they dont have to think and simply use brute strength and speed to get the job done. soccer is one of the few sports where you cant plop the player stats in front of a mathmatician and scientist and predict whos gonna win. At the opposite end of the spectrum dwells soccer, a minimalist game in every sense of the term - kick ball, run, stand, watch, run, kick ball, stand - on and on and on ad nauseam. It takes absolutely no brains, recognition, or hand-eye coordination to play, and it is therefore ideally suited to nitwit euros and the slovenly illiterate primitives of south america, africa and the middle east where it is popular. simply a null way to explain soccer. if i was to explain football, then i would say this: look at ball, catch, run like hell to other end of field. simple. a game of brute stregth where a bunch of over bulky guys fight over a piece of brown rubber. the game of soccer is always changing. unlike basketball and football. in football, there is always a play to run. in basketball, there's always a way to shoot etc. when soccer comes along, forget that mess. the best "play" you can make in soccer is to "mark" ppl. and DUH THERE IS NO HAND EYE COORDINATION. ITS SOCCER!!!! NO HANDS DUMBFUCK... unless your the goalie. which in that case youwill be using ur hand most of the time. When you think about it, no soccer player ever born could ever step onto a football field without leaving on a stretcher, whereas any number of NFL players could play soccer all day long at any level (of course with the exception of lard-asses like Tony Siragusa or a few others prone to inertia). ttry pitting the top nfl team against the top MSL team (soccer league). all we the soccer players would have to do is simple run circles around the slowass football players to score a goal. and i very much doubt a football player could keep up in speed with a soccer player. we would just outrun you in football too. dude you really need to just stop starting arguments for the hell of it. we have a thread for that already in here. go check it out.

It's the world's most popular sport. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean other people do. :) I'm sure you were taught that in maybe the first grade? :roll:

- OverlordSalvaged from archive7 Jul 2006, 10:43I have an idea for an even better game than soccer: Instead on not being able to touch the ball with your hands lets make it so you don't kick it either you can only "punt" the ball with your face. Then we'll riot when we lose and we'll put giant pictures of these grotesque face mutilated people on billboards and over time it will be super sexy to have a flat nose and torn eyelids and then we'll bow to the new world order of super europeans while horrendeous torn faces. And then we'll start smashing our own faces and paying people to do it while we're under anethisia so it doesn't hurt but we can still look tough. Maybe we could also host all the games at like 2:30AM in the fucking morning and laugh at all the working people who don't have to get up for work in the morning and can't watch it. In fact we should make everyone watch it in the most painful possible way to seperate the "die hard fans" from the "other human livestock". Like we would show it on one television in every city surrounded by riot police with baseball bats wrapped in barbed wire and they'll shred your flesh as you wade through the gore of human carnage to catch one face smashing moment of facesoccer bliss to tell all your friends about who had to get up for work in the morning. (I feel better now). Miss me anyone?

- Uh ohSalvaged from archive17 Jul 2006, 23:28in GTA San Andreas there's a radio show called the "Tight End Zone" that's all about sports. so anyways the host of it rants a bit about soccer and goes "your sport is stupid, and we don't win at it" and i think he said something about staying out of the country. the most idiotic of conclusions are made from the highest level of ignorance. the idiotic conclusion being the original post, the ignorance being the poster's lack of knowledge of soccer. but he doesn't seem like a "thinker" more of a "see-er definer".
- TheCanadianSalvaged from archive18 Jul 2006, 02:51I dont know if i should call Soccer "Football" or Football "crappy ass american sport"
- respeck27Salvaged from archive29 Jul 2006, 02:55You might be a redneck if . . . . . your screenname is balloonknott. And i bet NASCAR is a complex and exciting sport where you see cars go around in circles for hours. HOLY SHIT mayn go back to your trailer park and buy some commemorative plates.
- figjamSalvaged from archive29 Jul 2006, 03:30How can you rate a sport? What is the benchmark? Definitley not popularity, otherwise pocket billards would win hands down, the value of a sport is determined by how much cabbage it generates, The speal on skill, bravery, teamwork ect, count for jackshit , money determines which sport is righteous!
