Here - in Europe - everybody loves soccer. Everybody except me.
Personally, I don't understand why people like to watch 90+ minutes games where there's often only one or two goals, with very little excitement. The majority of soccer games are usually dead boring, and nothing happens for 85 minutes of the 90 minute period.
I, myself, would much rather watch tennis, where the skill's at.
Do you guys like soccer? If so, why? And, if not, why?

People are attracted to shitty things because they want to add meaning to their otherwise pointless existence.

Like many sports: fun as hell as long as you play, boring as hell just to watch.
...When you get a GOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLL!! though, eveyone goes fucking batshit insane. And the guy who scored does 80 backflips. Damn.

Why is soccer awesome? Nothing happens for 90 minutes...
Alot happens. Guys get kicked in the ball, and there's all the soccer drama..and if one guy hits the other guy, even a light tap, the other guy will scream in pain..it's all good. And funny.

Europeans only pretend to like football in order to confound the Americans, much in the same way Blacks pretend to like pig's feet in order to confuse the white man.
True story.

So are the South Americans, the Africans, the Asians and....wtf? Are you retarded or what? >>5
This man speaks the truth. American Football, football, tennis, hockey, handball, volleyball etc. are fucking boring to watch. Oooooh, I watch how a fucking sport is being played. I'd much rather play it myself

I only called it soccer to avoid confusing "football" with "American football".

The reason is that the vast majority of europeans have at atleast one occasion been on a soccer team, and in the course of that time been involved in sexual experiments in the dressing room. Personally, I'm going to Shang-Hi to train internal kung fu to block it out.
