Yeah, just not here. Nothing against the sport or anything, it's incredibly difficult to maintain that pace for so long but I'm into it just as much as ice hockey or basketball.

woo soccer 4 life!!lol ive played since i was 5 and i have my soccer ball autographed by david beckham..i Dont really see the attraction to football,i mean u work for 5 seconds,stop and rest,work for 5 seconds,stop and rest.Soccer u never stop moving and are always alert,dont even start me on baseball .BUT i cant watch soccer on the tv it is boring.

NFL = REAL FOOTBALL

yes because you use your foot so much.....

soccer is a joke. all you gotta do is learn how to fake a fall and throw your hands up after you fall.

That's a ridiculous thing to say.

Go check some stats on how much ground a soccer player covers in a match, compare that to NFL then tell me it's a joke.

Players regularly cover 10KM+ in a match, much of it sprinting.

They don't just come on for one play, then sit down for 20 minutes drinking Gatorade. If anything is a joke sport, it's american 'football' mate!

Alright I'm just going to say this now and hope it helps the situation. Let's not turn this thread into an argument over wheather one sport is better than another. The difference in opinions here is mostly due to how/where we were raised/live. I played soccer all through middle school, so that's why I'm more apt to enjoy the game than someone else who might have watched Football every week and would obviously be more used to and prefer that game.

Wooooo soccer. wooooo football. woooooowoooo.

i only like to spectate motorsports. other sports i like to play.
nascar is even cool if your there because all you do is get trashed, but on a tv ill pass.
just my .02

x2, but the sad part is, that i'd need to be trashed to watch it on tv

Luckily for me watching TV is something i dont often do

I say we should combine the 2 "footballs". It'd be like hockey but with no ice That's a game i could get into

hehehehe D-Man, that is a good idea... more physical and faster.

I know. After all it was my idea J/K.

But then we could end the argument of who has the better game, because it'd be the same game. Plus then we'd be able to beat the snot out of the whole world again.

I never got into soccer, but I just like to watch them get into fights. Though it can be brutal, those guys hit like the biggest sissies ever! LOL I only like American Football, and baseball is only fun to watch live. Other than that, I can't stand watching basketball sometimes, because lots of those players are crybabies who want to be the star of the show.

i can watch basketball on tv thats it,i cant watch football way to many commercials.


284 million people watched the final
5.9 billion total viewers for the whole tournament

A quick update of our chart to add this year’s record setting viewership of 97.448 million. 2006-2008 are Live+SD viewing, all other years are Live viewing.

yea...guess wat sport is which

Who cares...those Kenyan marathon runners are more hardcore than that. They should just take a ball out with them while they run a marathon and they'll be real cool.




Soccer is a WORLDWIDE craze, so you can't compare viewers of the 2 sports. Thats like comparing a televised high school basketball game on a local tv channel to a nationally televised NBA game. Hmmm...wonder whos gonna get the higher rating.



I prefer watching golf and tennis over soccer. soccer players are the biggest whiners and prima donnas ever. Ronaldo? Give me a break, puts on 20 lbs of gel in his hair before every game...probably to impress those cross dressing prostitutes...

Football is a REAL sport that incorporates strength, speed, agility and BRAINS. Have you even seen an NFL playbook? The amount of prepwork involved to be an NFL coach? 80% of the coaches dont even go home during the season. They stay in the stadium and lock themselves overnight for weeks at a time. Studyin tape.

lol....too bad pro football players dont even look like that anymore. you look at an offensive lineman or defensive lineman these days and they're so much leaner than they used to be because its all about speed and agility. with more and more teams running zone blocking schemes and 34 defenses where positions have to be interchangeable, even the "fatter players" have to be quicker to the ball. Football is a much harder sport than the wussy version they play overseas.

yea stoping every 5 seconds must be really hard work


wat a beauty!!

lol...if you played football straight through at that pace, they wouldnt last through a whole game cuz its more physically demanding than soccer. thats why you see 15 year olds go pro in soccer like Adu cuz its not a physically demanding sport. In the NFL with the exceptions of Deangelo Hall and Amobi Okoye, you have to be at least 22 to enter the NFL draft...they dont even let little boys skip college to enter the pros cuz they'll die. Its more mentally demanding too. I'd like to see you memorize over 2 to 3,000 plays every year in addition to that the audibles they gotta learn. What kinda things do soccer players have to do to prep for a game?

o idk just the whole strategy of the game,the line up,and the drillsand wat formation the team is in.In football u dont think at all,a retarded monkey could play.. the QB is the only one that thinks,the blockers block, thats it,the WRs have to run a route and catch,thats it,the RB runs in a lane,thats it...soccer you have to make decisions in a split second or get the ball taken,in football u get to stop every 5 seconds and get in a huddle with a bunch of sweaty guys to figure wat to do for the next 5 seconds.

have u ever played soccer shogun?
