A buddy just emailed me this website. Thought I'd share. Soccer Sucks
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.

Soccer is for little kids whose mom's are to scart to let their children play a regular sport, or where the folks are so poor there may only be one ball in the village.

I always say, I don't do this or that, or do this or that.
But it gets stupid when folks that should just do their thing and not worry about what others enjoy, continually have to slam things.
Granted I've not learned how to not slam Ruger, but otehr than that, man I don't like sports much. And I sure don't like watching things, I"d rather be doing things.
But the crap of baseball is it or basketball or such...
I think it shows that we put too much into some things, when we should be worrying about us and what makes us happy and not what pisses otehrs off.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Please tell me you made that up. I'd hate to be a fan of anything Bears related.
4 out of 5 Great Lakes prefer Michigan.

Soccer is not understood by many. They should be pitied for that, not denigrated.

I've been missing the World Cup because I don't have Cable/Dish, not because I hate soccer. I miss most of the NFL season for the same reason. The link was provided for a little Campfire levity.

Do you know why so many people play soccer? So they don't have to watch it. 
Camp is where you make it.

More people watching the WC than all the major sports combined in the last year.

I played 14yrs worth of soccer, it's a rough game but watching the "pros" flop when someone breathes on them pisses me off. I also played football OL/DL and while soccer would never rank as highly in my opinion as football it is certainly a real sport.
A truly schitty sport is baseball. Nothing like 1 guy throwing, 1 guy swinging and 30 more guys watching those 2. There is a lot of strategy in baseball too. Hit it here so these guys might not catch it, lol.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

any sport that puts everyone in the world against everyone else in the world every four years is pretty cool

Still trying to figure out why I should give a schitt about a bunch of grown men playing with a ball 10,000 miles away.
