Soccer is mastered by Africans and South Americans, Western Europeans and Japanese just add the money, and make it a business.

The fundamental problem with football is the low scoring. After 120 minutes of kicking the ball around fruitlessly they goto penalty kicks... This isn't a rare occurence either. Penalty kicks aren't a very fair way to decide the outcome of a game. A lot of it is just luck. They need to redo the rules so their is an average of around 5 points a game or so. So its less of a luck based system. Some ideas I had to increase scoring so the best team won instead of the luckier team:

1. Reduce the size of the field and perhaps the amount of players. Too big and too many people and it becomes a defensive stalemate. Try playing 11 vs. 11 b-ball sometime.
2. Over and back rule
3. Time limit getting it accross the mid line
4. Eliminate offsides. Sure there would be cherry picking but why are you not guarding somebody? I have seen several goals taken back due to this and several goals that seemed to certainly be offsides allowed. I think it lets officiating decide the outcome of a game.

I'm pretty sure that's the only reason why it's not big in the US - and never will be.

Football or as you call it Soccer isn't cheap to watch. In the UK - oh and I wouldn't say this is a third world country - the average season ticket to watch your club is around $1500. Thats for basic seats. You then have the strips to pay for, transport to the games, away game tickets, European tickets, flights, hotels etc

The list goes on and on. I know Basketball and Baseball probably costs more, but its by far a cheap sport to follow.

Trey will never stop pulling your leg and I thought that everyone would know better by now... but you still take on the challenge and here we go with another drama.

You can't win against a guy who's doing it for the fun because he's not taking it seriously and you are :winkwink:

Oh, I forgot... 50 soccer... eh... football games :1orglaugh

you are a sick man! Most of the ppl watch WC, they are cheering for their team, for their country and only third world. And if you are talking about attending the game by poor ppl, you should take into consideration that tickets to some other country also cost much.

You can not say this is true of almost any other sport. Basketball is close, but requires a hard court and baskets. However, once this is established in a community, again only a ball is needed. This explains the popularity in poor American hoods.

Football may well be a good game, but claiming it's the "best" because it's the most popular is sort of misleading. It's kind of like saying white rice is "better" than roast beef, because more people eat it as a daily staple.

I'm done with this thread after WarChild's post.
Thus the bump without any more commentary as it's already posted in the quote above.

Man, have you ever even been outside the US????
Drugs, hookers and real food are not only available everywhere, they are also cheaper and far superior in quality.
