Nobody is Going to the Soccer Games

[Zebra]

I dont understand soccer because I dont know the rules. I'd rather watch that than golf or auto racing though. Now those two things are awful to spectate. Pointless.

Not everybody understands the offside rule in soccer.
But the rest is clear.

This is very true. Soccer isn't the world's most popular sport because it is the best game, it is the most popular because it is the most accessible.

I am a sports enthusiast.

But I find soccer to be extremely boring. I mean, a 'sport' where you can't use your hands isn't even a sport, IMO. More like a dick-fight.

Yes, they are in fantastic shape and they can run for miles, and have superb endurance but -- So What?

It's still boring. Sooper Boring.

And it's not like I haven't tried. I have actually sat down and TRIED -- Hard, to watch and understand the game. At home and in Sports Bars.

It's boring. It's a game for girls and little boys whose Mommies don't want them to get hurt playing a real sport.

The closest comparison I can come to is Wiffle Ball. The biggest difference being, I can watch Wiffle Ball and enjoy it because nobody takes it seriously.

Nobody should take soccer seriously, either. It's not even a sport. And it is boring. Like watching paint dry.

It's not as bad as watching golf, but nothing is as bad as watching golf.

I tend to agree. I also can't stand the drama every time they fall down and in the World Cup they have a hydration break midway through each half. It sure doesn't seem like much of a manly sport, that's for sure.

In addition, why on earth would they not just stop the clock when play stops instead of adding stoppage time? That is the most idiotic thing I have ever seen in any sport. The remaining time is very inexact. It is just a strange, rather boring game for sure. Like I stated above, it is very popular around the world because it is one of the most accessible and one of the more simplistic sports.

Yes, this is why very young children can play. It is a very simple sport to understand, minus offsides.

I never let my boys play football. Not worth the risk. While I dont watch soccer, I'd rather have kids running around playing soccer than sitting on their phones.

I sure as hell ain’t goin’. Perpetual boredom and security that give you an anal probe.
