why is it that just americans dont like it? is there some sort of reasonable explanation?   

its called football hockey baseball and basketball

if we were like brazil and only had soccer for most of the last 100 years then id probably like it to...when its the only thing you got you tend to force yourself to latch on...but when you have the four best pro sports leagues the world has ever known and all of them shtein all over soccer why the hell would you ever watch one second of it....

ill give people a pass on the world cup just because its such an event but even asking why americans dont like soccer is hilarious...its an awful game that was never ingrained in our culture...is that reasonable enough?

i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

Im confused why ice hockey has latched on in Brazil.

My girl's dad is a sports journalist in Peru. He asked what my reaction was to the US team's run the other week was and was shocked that I wasn't amped up.

That's because he's never been exposed to major league baseball. If only the international community could see the excitement that is the MLB they'd never think about soccer again. Poor bastiches.

exactly they would die if they had to watch baseball cause they didnt grow up with it...but thats why we are america and they arent

if we dont like baseball we get to watch football...if we dont like football we get to watch hockey...ect...its an embarrassment of riches...i feel so bad for the rest of the world being forced to watch that garbage

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.
