Soccer being the number 1 sport played in the world and that being an exciting fun sport are two different things.
Soccer is popular because its easy and cheap to play, which makes it universal. The sports most Americans love are expensive to play. If everyone in the world had the access to the equiptment to play football I am sure things would start to balance out. But the reality is most nations can not afford anything but a soccer ball and so the brutal sport will continue to reign supreme in participation.
Soccer is just incredibly dull. If they did away with the offsides rule, and maybe dropped the number of players to 9 to open it up more, it would be far more exciting. But any game with only 5 shots on net per game is flat out ridiculous.
And lets not get into settling a world cup with fucking penalty kicks.
