Soccer IS the most popular sport in the world, but In the USA and Canada it is one of the most hated. From the definitions I have read about soccer, people are stereotyping about how people stereotype about soccer. Yes It does take skill, but so does American football, soccer is looked as a pussy sport because there is little contact, and more dives than olympic diving teams. People say you have to run for ever and no football player could ever do that, when they do that for training all the time.
Soccer DOES take skill, but it takes less brawl, and brawl is more attractive to the USA and Canadian citizens, it also is not the sport with the most skill, if anything, paintball/airsoft has the most skill (shooting, running, adjusting to the wind to aim, jumping, dodging, shoulder rolls, conserving ammo, and many more, but thats not this topic)
And I am NOT unfit or fat, I am as a matter of fact in very good athletic shape, I am also not a football or soccer player.

What soccer players think all football players are like,
football guy: Hey soccer sucks I am fat and make fun of soccer because I have no life.
What they are REALLY like
football guy: I hate soccer players, they always wine about us not liking them.
What football players think soccer players are like
soccer guy: I am homosexual, skinny, and would loose in a fight againts my 3 year old sister
What soccer players are actually like
soccer guy: Football players think they are so great just because they can hit people and bench this and do stronger stuff, but they have no skill whatso ever.

Get the soccermug. I played soccer for 8 years in the states and as I started playing at higher levels, the sport became less and less fun. A dude would lean on me, I would lean back, and he would fall down holding his shin or some bullshit. Then I would get penalized and the pussy gets rewarded with a free kick. I did not appreciate this system, and quickly moved on to more contact friendly sports.
At the higher level, it pays to be a pussy in soccer.
When combined with low scoring and lots of whining, professional soccer is a big turn off for most Americans. I don't see it catching on anytime soon. While basketball shares the high degree of crying, it has a lot more action.
The amount of bitching and carrying on gives professional soccer players the apperance of being whiny bitches. Coincidentally, homosexuals are also whiny bitches and this makes soccer players look like fags. If you meet an American who says he doesn't think soccer players are fags, he is either lying or he is a fag.

Watch a world cup soccer game. Their will be like 20 examples of guys falling down holding their legs and crying to the refs. I love how they always have the trainer run out to pretend that the player is hurt and rub an icepack somewhere. 30 seconds later the dude gets up and he's fine. That is a crybaby!
Either you are injured, or you are not injured. If you are not injured, the game should not be stopped so you can bitch and whine while we all wait for the action to start back up.

Get the soccermug. lots of people say soccer is harder than american football because you are constantly moving... how many times do you see a soccer player tackled by a 6'5 300 pound guy and get right back up? if soccer takes so much more work, why arent soccer players built like football players; constantly in the weight room? soccer players may be fast, but they aren't running 4.3 40 yard dashes.
Soccer douche: soccer is so much harder than american football
football player: *knocks soccer player on ground*
soccer douche: shit call my mom and bring the mini van and some ice

Get the soccermug. a sport invented by the chinese 500 years ago. They used a ball made of leather, and eventually the sport migrated over to Europe and them fucking Brits think they invented it. Soccer is fucking awesome and no sport can beat it well maybe rugby, but DEFINITLY NOT AMERICAN FOOTBALL.
Some amazing players that play soccer are Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Pele, and Shevchenko :).

Get the soccermug. By far and unfortunately, the most popular sport in the world. These players get taken off in stretchers over a rolled ankle, they whine and complain and cry over the tiniest injuries. EVERYtime they fall, you can be sure they won't get up after a few minutes. Sure, it's straight running for 45 minutes for two halves. Who gives a shit? Cross Country you run A LOT more, but does that make Cross Country more of a sport than Soccer? Probably not. Then there's this moving backwards and passing backwards which means VERY LITTLE scoring which makes it impossible to watch. Yeah, only a true soccer fan can detect the eye-popping moves, not the case for the casual sports fan. Sure it takes a lot of skill, and I mean A LOT of skill to play soccer, but it's not very noticable and not very entertaining... at all. Oh, and no sport should EVER be a sport if it ends in a fucking TIE. Ties do not show what team is better and it's never worth watching 3 seconds of the match if you know it's going to end in a tie. Meanwhile, you got one handed touchdowns, slam dunks, and home runs. Then you got TOUGH athletes like Donovan McNabb playing on one leg, Brett Favre throwing TDs with 2 working fingers, and Richard Hamilton scoring 25 points with a broken face. Then there's Michael Jordan's last second shots and John Elway's last minute drives. There's not much you can expect in the last minute of soccer games. And yes, American Football players do wear pads. You say soccer doesn't need pads because that makes them tougher? Think again. Football is SO FUCKING TOUGH that you NEED to have pads. And even with pads, it still makes football a much tougher sport. You can't even compare soccer to football, so stop trying. Look, I'll admit soccer requires the most skill and the most eye coordination and is very exhausting. But that in any way or form of meaning DOES NOT MAKE IT BETTER OR MORE ENTERTAINING THAN OTHER SPORTS. The more you say or think about it, the more you are a disgrace to the wide wide wide world of sports.
