OMG I was screaming and jumping up and down!!! Love soccer! We are a soccer family. My son plays it.....loves the sport. It's his passion. My other son coached a few years. I came to appreciate the game more this last year. It is a tough sport and very physical.
We went to a Chicgao Fire game awhile back....men's league. They glided across the feild. Made it look effortless. My son is going to see Manchester United in a few weeks. It's his graduation present. He is beyond thrilled.
Soccer is like any other sport, either you like to watch it or you don't. I can't stand football. That is like watching paint dry.

To each is own. Football is a very rough sport as well but it bores me. I like watching golf but the narrators put me to sleep. Butterbean I was only saying that I have a higher respect for soccer because I've seen how hard my child and other children played this last year. It is a very difficult sport. It is also moving quickly up the ladder as one of the most poplualr sports. Watch what you like.

One must be very disciplined not to use their hands. In HS,we played Speedaway. Kinda the same thing, but if you could roll the ball up your leg, you could then grab it w/ your hands, and run and throw it. As for injuries, I, guess, you have not watched much, as they get hurt, frequently. Some hard head hits, and leg and ankle injuries.

Soccer requires stamina, strength and many skill sets particular to it...the same with American football. I think we gravitate as parents to the sports, clubs and talents our kids are good at and participate in. Even fishing is a sport up at the high school now. Imagine that. All of my kids played organized soccer...one of them up at the high school. When they weren't on the field, when I look back now, I wish they had invented I pads/I phones back then.

Fishing? Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.... Rather play than watch anyways. Unless of course it's watching the kids.

Soccer is the single stupidest waste of time I have ever seen, either to watch or to participate.
I'm not a huge auto racing fan but one would have to be a special kind of stupid to discount the skill and courage it takes to strap yourself into a vehicle capable of attaining speeds of over 200 mile per hour and race within inches of up to 43 other cars. That is not to mention the innovative technology and expertise it takes to build, maintain and insure safety systems that protect drivers hitting the wall at 175 or 180 miles per hour. If it was just cars going in circles no one would watch but there is much more to it than that and anyone who says otherwise is a mere idiot that is not to be taken seriously.
Running a close second to soccer in the waste of time category is golf. Anyone who will happily sit down and watch golf and watch with any degree of interest needs to re-evaluate their entertainment priorities. Again, a really dumb game.
