Title: This is why americans dont like soccer...
Post by: Viper_Fujax on July 11, 2010, 10:52:37 AM
I really like watching the world cup, but this game...
every fucking time i turn around there\'s some over dramatic homo rolling around on the ground acting like someone just hit their leg with a machette..only to see the replay and he barely touched the guy. and hes running around like nothing happened 5 seconds later
grow some damn balls and take the hit every once in a while. I\'m curious how many opportunities these teams would have if they fought the guy off and kept running instead of crying for a penalty kick. yet europeans bitch about american football stopping after every play.
jesus christ...the prior games i watched werent this bad with that\\
except a foot to the chest. that i can understand would hurt a little

I watched some of it in extra time (the only bit of WC I\'ve watched) and quickly turned off the TV.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING

No offense to you Adan, but I was rooting for Spain to lose.
Their fans are racist. Making monkey sounds whenever their OWN player (who happens to be black) gets the ball, throwing bananas at him.
Not just in soccer too. F1, Lewis Hamilton was jeered by Spanish crowds as they wore black painted faces and Afro wigs and as usual, making monkey sounds.

Soccer sucks, plain and simple
I don\'t care if it\'s the most popular sport in the world, it\'s boring as hell and is unwatchable in my book. I tried to watch some of this world cup this year, but it was like forcing myself to watch "the view".
I\'d rather hangout with Viper and smack each other around with 2 foot dildos

Yeah...i can\'t watch soccer either, for me it\'s right up there with baseball & golf....football(u.s.) is the only sport i really watch...i\'ll watch some b-ball every now and then, but i only really tend to watch that towards the playoffs.
There\'s only a handful of decent boxers in boxing today, i really fell off from watching that sport, i\'ll watch if somebody like floyd is fighting a really great fighter, but other than that meh...it kinda slowed for me after tyson, holyfield and that whole heavyweight/middleweight divsion started going stale...

Yes we\'ve a nice bunch of assholes, but it\'s not the whole country behaving like that. On the other hand, Hamilton is not a saint.

no he\'s not, but then again, neither is alonso, to a greater extent. alonso has suffered nothing at the hands of the british public that compares to hamilton in spain.
