I just can't understand the concept of soccer being boring.
90 minutes of constant running, strategy, etc., with no time out (except for bleeding head injuries). It's A display of superb conditioning, coordination, and athleticism.
it makes perfect sense to me, the masses want micro wave or fast food NOW!
they also want to see the pinball game light up, so they know when to cheer.
that's why football went from one score can win it all 13-7 type games of our youth. To offense minded, hey "let's light up the scoreboard, even chix know to cheer or boo for a touchdown"
some great baseball games have been 1-0, some great football games 9-6 or similar low scores.
but only more than the casual fan gets that aspect, the drama that any score can turn this game.
thus why soccer doesn't appeal to a wide variety of Americans.
and if you've never played, or been actively involved with it, you've no idea of the superior conditioning it takes to play it at all, leave alone well.
don't hold it against em cause they don't get it Mike,
heck lots of folks think the 2nd amendment is outdated too
