Forums - General - Anyone really dislike soccer?

Moren on 23 June 2010

really, I hate soccer too, but you can't say people who like soccer are biased, it's their opinion (even if they're too many that comes to annoy)

i dont see how my comment was nonsensical at all.  in this country soccer among non immgrant families is generally seen as a childrens game.  thats likely still popular as a childrens game because of the low cost for parents... meaning even the children of poorer families can still participate in sports.  all you need is a ball (or ball like object ie rolls when you kick it) and an open space.


I agree with you.. It's a girls game and a chidlrens game in the U.S... Takes almost as much skill as hop skotch.

I disagree with your assertion that Futbol (Soccer) requires no skill.

But after playing the sport for 10 years, I can agree that the sport is boring and tedious.


Someone who is not being biased! Finally. Thankyou

Unbiased because they are agreening with you?

Bit biased of you imo.
Also Basket ball and base ball are girls games in the rest of the world. Rounders and netball

And with that i'm done. The mods will be here soon.

Saying that football (I refuse to use the S-word.) is only about running and kicking balls () is as narrow-minded as saying that... Can't think of a good metaphor, but it's narrow-minded!

I like other sports, but soccer to me just doesn't strike as a talent. I didn't want to post this in the soccer thread because I didn't want to upset the fans. So can this thread be here for the people who have a different opinion on soccer, for the americas who know soccer still isn't popular here and will never be. Thanks!

Excuse me? Taylor's talent is light years beyond anyone who has ever played soccer in their life. She is this generations John Lennon.

Let's hope so. This thread is just an attempt to rile up people.

I hate soccer, it's anoying and there are many othr cool sports

I find it so monotone:

sport: soccer

something in free time: soccer

something while you're busy: soccer

soccer, soccer, soccer, soccer!!

I eventually got anoyed and I hate soccer since then

It really annoys me how these pros make it their life.. like don't they have something else to do?

Happens with every sport


not really, I have friends who play volleyball, but they tend to vary too, I swim, but I also tend to vary, but those who really play soccer, will always wanna do it over and over and over.

-you say: we're done with this, what do we do?

- soccer

-               -_-      and after?

- soccer

What I don't like about soccer are the fans. Gosh they're annoying.

It's ok to play soccer and I really like it once in a while but watching soccer on TV and rooting for a team and then crying if they loose or kill people is just way too much. One must remember it's just a game after all.

I mean even the governement gets involved.

That happens in every major sport, when there's a large enough of concentration of fans to create a mob mentality. In Venezuela, I've seen a couple of people dying in a Baseball match, after a field invasion when the Caracas team lost. Is Baseball to blame for what the fans do?

But many people are racists simply because of soccer. Now that's wrong.

lestatdark  - Because running around kicking a ball really isn't that hard?

Naum - You need super strength. You need agility and if you don't have those, you might end up with a broken back if you play football.

kowenicki - Basket Ball and Baseball

MrBubbles I agree

Chrizum Thats an opinion

You are fucking kidding right?

Running around and kicking the ball about is not football. At most it is bad park football, just watch a game of football are tell me there is no skill there

I actually watch football, but don't like it. I can obviously see the talent in it though, but not in soccer. It seems like a sport that was invented for people who couldn't play the other sports.


When I say football, I mean football, not American football

You can't just shout out "that's my opinion and I disagree with your opinion!" without actually backing it up with arguments. Come on, try a little harder or admit that you're just trying to cause a ruckus.

You know what? I've really almost had it up to here with certain people disagreeing with me cause I disagree with them. I'm not trying to cause a ruckus. First the Taylor Swift thing and now soccer.. Just because you disagree with my opinions doesn't mean you should just flat out tell me I'm trying to cause a ruckus. You don't know me.

Did you even read my post? Do you understand English?? you can't just say you disagree with something without backing it up with arguments. If you do so, you'll get attacked for it and rightfully so.

I can disagree rightfully, yet you are already attacking what I believe. It's unfair to critique me for something that I believe and its not rightfully so.

So, Ps3, according to you carrying the ball with the hands requires more skill than with the feet?

Dribbling bouncing a ball with your hands past x number od opponents who will try to take it from you with their hands requires more skill than dribbling with a ball in your feet against x number of opponents who will try to take it from you with their entire body with a good chance of receiving a kick or something worst?

Passing and receiving with hands is harder than with feet?

I won't even mention the difficult of scoring.

No talent at all.

 

Yes its much harder because its harder to throw a ball into a net from a distance. The legs have so much power and it gives an unfair advantage.
