I am weird in both countries because I like baseball and I like football/soccer. In both it isn't something that I can really explain but at some point I get sucked into the drama of both games even if they aren't super fast matches. Football and baseball are both sports that have long traditions of father/son bonding that then builds into a lifelong passion not just for the sport in general but for a team in particular. Some of the best individual matches of any sport I have seen have been football matches..the drama can be intense at times.
