Football and Baseball are as lame to watch as Soccer.

It’s not moronic at all – in football and baseball, there’s the need for first downs and movement down the field and/or three outs (or strikes) that signify short term goals. There’s a sense of moving toward something and success/failure with each play, even if there’s no score.

With soccer, it’s just “roll it out there” and watch the time go by.

D-Wade’s Dunk over Erika Dampier or waiting all game for a goal? Tough choice.

The hole they don’t score thing is stupid. Nobody complains when an NFL game is 21-14, but really it’s only 3-2, if you only count the touchdowns or goals scored. And everybody a love a 2-1 baseball game, its called a pitchers duel.

It really is moronic.

The whole “They never score” thing just is another ignorant way to say it’s different than the sports American’s are used to. I love it – each goal is so exciting and meaningful. Changes the game entirely. Awesome.

A-Wood, I couldn’t have said it better myself. For all the “They never score” people, what a half! 2-1 after 18 minutes…it doesn’t get any more high scoring than that.

If that first half couldn’t get you into soccer, nothing will.
