RE: OT:Official Soccer Sucks Thread
I grew up like most of you, I expect. Playing and watching the big three sports. Fast forward past marriage and fatherhood, and now my oldest boy plays in the Dynamo Youth Academy. Soccer is all he does. It's all he watches. He's taught me to appreciate the ball skills and first touches and leading passes and all that. But I still don't understand the hype. I just shrug and cheer. But I do get pumped when he scores.

I don't have any kids, but my parents never really appreciated it until I started scoring goals. I can't imagine how the parent of a defensive player feels...

Oooh, I'm sorry, but all posts need to be in the form of a question. Your soccer sucks card has been revoked and you're now issued a soccer fanactics card.

Hey, I don't hand it over that easily. You have to take it from me. I do think your criticism about posts being a question is valid so let me re-state: Why does soccer suck so much?

I believe low global interest rates are the reason the markets won't stop going up. There's literally no other place to put your money except the stock market. The day of reckoning is coming though and it's wayyy past due...

If we have one of those days where the S&P drops 50+ pts. (-2%), pull your **** out and sit in cash for a while. DO NOT buy the dip unless you have considerable assets and/or are very young and won't be touching the money for a long time. The last major correction (2000) took a decade before investment accounts were back to even. We are seeing a lot of similarities to 99-00 market conditions.

So you're basically saying soccer will suck even more once the big correction comes, right?

I'm saying we need a soccer correction.

Any interesting soccer news that would suggest that the sport doesn't suck as some people think it does?

Soccer games could score 50 points a game and I still would not give a damn about it, having soccer all over some local tv channels is like having isis values pushed onto me...can't click away from it fast enough!
Soccer sux...

Yep, it's what got me interested in the sport and then my son started playing and I was hooked. Together, we watch more soccer than baseball, football, and basketball combined. I used to be a hater, but no longer. I tend not to get caught up in the low scoring etc, as it's all relative. A 14-7 football game is great, but a 2-1 soccer result is boring even thought both are the same. A 1-0 pitchers duel is awesome, but a 1-0 soccer game is boring, etc. Anyway, heading up to DC to catch the Barca/ManU match with my son tomorrow, with approximately 75-80,000 other folks.

Ha Ha soccer haters... we have been telling you for years soccer is like the Borg. You will be assimilated. Soon you will be sitting on your front porch with your walker and cane shaking them at the neighbor's kids playing soccer saying, "get off my lawn". Then you will go inside and turn on the TV and shake your cane again saying "get off my TV" because you are looking for MLB and the only thing playing is La Liga or the MLS. You will sit an watch because it is the only thing on then slowly the change happens.... YOU ARE DOOMED!!!

I taped orlando VA. atlanta mls game a few days ago.. 0 to 0. Fell asleep.. Woke up it was still scoreless. Someone scored with 2 minutes left.. Game sucked. Soccer sucks. Attendance was decent but not a full house like Orlando constantly reports.

I hope those typos were intentional, Col. Fitts. Because if they aren't than it's obvious you're lying. If you're lying about that, then you're obviously lying about your hatred of soccer.

Corrected spelling. Soccer does suck. I have see Pele and Franz Beckenbauer play.. And can indeed state unequivocally that soccer sucks. 04-cheers

Soccer is huge in those places. Anybody think it's a coincidence they don't use their hands in soccer?

Yes being invented at the hub of western civilization and being the top sport in all highly advanced cultures really casts a dark shadow upon it.

I expect all of you red blooded Americans to tune into FS1 this evening/night to cheer on our American boys in a clash against the reggae boys from Jamaica for the Gold Cup title.

If you don't watch it, I can only assume that you are a communist loving bas****.

Soccer is a dark shadow because it's stupid, a bunch of goat roppers, soccer is all hat and no cattle, it doesn't belong in the US of A or on my TV, it's like" where's the beef", boring
