If the USA had Won the World Cup they....
If the USA had Won the World Cup all you anti soccer peeps would suddenly love the game and agree or admit to it being the best sport in the World !
I don't care what sport you follow or watch but please do not ever compare any other sport to the #1 sport in the world ! |
I think you have that one nailed:2 cents: :thumbsup

The USA hates football because they are 100% shit at it. They should seriously hate baseball as they lost that as well.
|
If the UK won I still wouldnt give a shit.
|
soccer will never be popular in the u.s . main reason is that this game has no breaks for commercials breaks . it's 90 minutes of one half break during the entire match , unlike basketball , football , hockey , golf - they all have many breaks for commercials :2 cents:
|
You're 100% right.

Kind of sucks to be America in the baseball. Cuba Australia Japan Canada Chinese Taipei Netherlands Greece Italy Those nasty communists came first and fifth. |
yep, that pretty much sums it up :1orglaugh
|
We'd hear about it on the news and say "huh?"
|
futbol is the only world sporting event besides the olympics..
it is THE ultimate sport. i only became a fan when i lived in brasil for a year. now i cannot go without it. |

WHY ? because when the US Women Soccer Team won it was big news in the USA, saw them on the letterman show CNN etc.. Women soccer hardly makes the news even in european soccer countries. (wonder what the next excuse is) |

Euro Myth #1:
Football and Basketball are not popular because they have commercial breaks. They have commercial breaks because they are popular. No one in the US would spend money to advertise on a sport that no one was watching. (Soccer) Euro Myth #2 Football and Basketball athletes should never be compared to soccer players. Its not fair to the soccer players. The biggest, fastests, strongest, quickest soccer players try out to be field goal kickers on College football teams. Some make it, most dont. Explanation: Professional athletes seriously develop their skills at a young age, most likely high school. At most US high schools, thousands of people from the community go to the high school football game on Friday night where the cheerleaders cheer, the band plays, and the stands are packed. The newspapers and local news cover the stars of the games. At those same high schools, the soccer games are played the following saturday morning with no one but the players parents there to watch. They play on saturday to keep from screwing up the grass on the football field before a game. In europe, the best athletes grow up playing soccer. In the US, the best athletes play primetime sports. |

whatever, even you have to admit if every country played NFL or Basketball and the USA would then Win the World series or superbowl it would an amazing achievment and worth celebrating.....but they dont...basicly the whole World plays soccer and to win the World Cup means you are the best in the whole world at a sport the whole world plays, not just a sport that's played in your country ! |

Advertising and sponsorship deals for the 2010 and 2014 world cups have already sold out. The packages started at $150 million. Obviously Visa, MacDonalds, Nike etc have wasted their money backing second rate human beings.
Funny how if all Football players are weak that America tends to suck when playing them. |
Yeah looks like a bunch of real tough guys to me lol.

Wow, that has to be one the stupidest things I've ever read. Yeah, no one watches the world cup, that's the reason there are no commercials. And no American corporations pay hundreds of millions of dollars just to have their logos outside the field. I love it when clueless people think they're sharing their brilliant knowledge with others. |
soccer is for pussies

Another lie. Over half of the planet wathces or listens to the world cup of soccer. Our superbowl does not get 150 million viewers. Are you really this stupid and hateful or is it just your GFY persona? |

Basically football is an international sport with followers (and vested financial interests) in the billions. Nothing wrong with American football - as you say, it's a national sport. Trying to compare a country with less than 5% of world population to an international sport is pointless. |

The world classic is nothing but exhibition. Most if not all the good players play for Major league baseball anyway |
Winning the World Cup would GO A LONG WAY in making soccer more popular in the USA. What I don't get is why it's not more popular in the US since manykids have soccer programs.

I just hate watching sports, period. I like to watch football, and that's just to follow my fantasy football players.
Hell.. I played a sport 18 years, played at a D1 school...And I even hate to watch that sport. |
