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.

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.


yeah, that's true.

In my country only black people are accepted in soccer teams

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.

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


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

Because I'm disagreeing? This is really unfair. I DONT HAVE TO LIKE SOCCER IF I DONT WANT TO. If you love it, fine, go praise it somewhere that people don't want to. This thread is for people who dislike soccer.

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

Ok, then tell you what. Get a bunch of people together, and ask a professional football team near your residence (if you have a local football team) to play against you.

Then come back and tell me if it isn't that hard. 

If you suffer less than 10 goals, I shall consider it a victory for you. 

Seriously, the ignorance in your comment is astounding.

No. You couldn't pay me to play soccer.

 

I've played it when I was 10 and around here all the girls play it when they are like 8.

 

Your comment is the one thats being biased and ignorant. You are reflecting my opinion cause I disagree that soccer is god.

I'm not reflecting your opinion. I asked you to elaborate as to why Football requires no skill, to which you gave a ignorant (because you showed you have no actual knowledge of the tactics, strategies and different playing techniques that football requires) and non intelligent comment. 

Where did I say that Football is god? It's far from my favorite sport, if you must know. That's reserved for Baseball, since I was raised in a South American country and pretty much had Baseball through most of my life.

That is such a horrible word. Yet, people wont call people out who use words like this. I think people here need to stop thinking outside the cliques they have with each other and stop being biased towards other members. Just because I think soccer doesn't require talent or is a girls game doesn't make me stupid.

Actually Football has been one of the sports which has done the greatest strides to abolish racism in sportsmanship. That comment would have been right. 40 Years ago.

Hm, I dislike football because I don't like watching any sports, it's so popular across Europe it's barely escapable right now, and its fans (the ones in the streets before and after a game can be scary).

I did like playing it in school though, and it takes a fair bit of skill even on that level. I was never good at it while I was 1st~3rd at both sprinting and running.

... the closest Taylor Swift can get to Lennon is getting shot.

You wanna know what's wrong? Starting a fucking war over a sport.
Sure, it only lasted 4 days, but still, what the fuck?
