Football (soccer) more popular than baseball in the states ?

[Maestro Minded]

Soccer is popular with little kids because it is so simple to play....running around kicking a ball. But when they get older and more cordinated than they move on to to more challenging sports like baseball, basketball, and (American) football. Those sports are alot harder to play.

Basically, it goes like this: Americans are never going to accept socccer no matter how much it is promoted. Just like Europeans are never going to accept American football no matter how much the NFL promites it over there. People prefer the sport that they have been playing for centuries and they have lots of tradition.

"europeans" accepted basketball and hockey, which are quite... entertaining sports ... theres a reason why baskeball and american football aint widely spread

when i think of it, both sports are actually "invented" by canadians...

lol that made me laugh.. proves you really dont know much on what you talk about. every sport broken down to its elements are simple, i'd say fully understanding football would be alot more challenging for your mind then you would ever think.

What is so hard about kicking a soccer ball?

Everyone knows the hardest thing to do in sports is hit a baseball.

man you must be really retarded: Football is 10 X harder than baseball. Every fat guy can baseball, but without good physics you have no chance in professional football. Plus tactic and technique are so complexive.
Good thing is, everybody can play football and have fun, but ´to be good, it's more than just kickin' a ball

Baseball on the other hand is the most boring sport in the world besides golf, only rednecks like Real American love baseball.

I'm sure you can't believe it because you yourself have a hard time admitting that you're from Poland... and if you don't bother to learn our language, you really should get the fuck out of my country.

Um, you know that pitchers in baseball throw the ball 95miles per hour. That is equvalent to 150 kilometers per hour for you Euros. Then imagine the pitcher changing speed to mess up your timing, and then making the ball curve, split, and slide.

It is common knowledge that hitting a baseball is the hardest thing to do in sports.
