PS3, I'll be the most honest I can be: you're a hypocrit and you represent what's wrong with the typical USA citizen - the arrogancy, the idea that they're far more superior than people from other countries in every possible way, in this case, sports.
First of all, you accuse the people who actually like soccer to be biased. On the other hand, you praise the people who share your oppinion and say they're "unbiased". Ironically, that makes you the most biased person on this thread. Well, that and the fact that you created this thread just to flame, there is no way no one will change your opinion 'cause you won't lift your ass of the couch and actually try to play football without keeping in mind "I must hate this sport".
Second of all, no talent required? HA! I'm willing to bet with with you, you can't do 1/10 of the stuff I can do with a ball. I'm not even exagerating and I'm not that good. Besides, if it's that easy, why don't you just come to Europe, play for Real Madrid and win millions per month?
Third of all, watch true football from other countries, like England, Spain, or better yet, watch the World Cup, things are starting to heat up. USA's football is still very... well, the best word for it is amateur. Give it some years.
If it looks boring for you, it's because you either don't have any idea of what's going on, and therefor your opinion is based on ignorance, or if both teams have too much to lose, and therefor they must be cautious. Just because it's an universal sport... I'm sorry, I can't even find a good word to describe your ignorance! A universal sport is something that men, women, children, EVERYONE can enjoy. It's something everyone can play and have fun with. It's something everyone from any place of the world can play if they have a ball. Of course that, in order to be one of the idols that play in big clubs, you can't just decide you want to be a football player - even tho dedication is a great step forward, you need skills such as strengh, speed, agility, inteligence, experience (so you can understand the opponent's tactic), technic, and also, be just as strong mentally. Football is unique.
In other words, this thread is a failed attempt to bash football and its fans.
