I still enjoy watching the NFL, occasional college football game, certain NBA playoff games, March Madness and a few other things. I don't watch hockey, it just never clicked with me. But I'm not gonna sit here and fucking diss the people that like it.

Obviously some people are butthurt because their American sports are not the most popular in the world.

More like laughing out asses off that you guys can't play any other sport. Look at it like this, if we pull off some crazy miracle in four years & win the World Cup, we still won't give a fuck, if that makes you feel any better lol. I never understood that, "we're not good, so we ignore it" thing. In the World Baseball Classic we didn't do that well at all, but for some reason it's still one of top sports in this country. When we lost like five years ago in Basketball, didn't even place in the World games, Basketball's popularity didn't plummet. When we made it the Finals, almost beating Canada (the king of Hockey) in the Olympics, Hockey didn't become increasingly popular.
So why is it that we don't like Soccer because we don't win at it? Sounds more to me that you just can't cover up the fact that it's boring lol.
& above all, if you're going to claim it's a "World" sport, why are you claiming it like it's European? Did America get removed off of the World map or something?

Ehm, I think you misunderstood sth.
And Europeans can't play other sports? ??? lmao you have serious issues
sorry but I gotta go now.

Makes sense, after shutting down the whole "you don't win, you're elitist, you need to or you hate it" argument. ;)

that's your interpretation. Where did I say that you don't like football because you're not successful at it? (I think America does quite good, and with more infrastructure/ experienced coaches it could become a might)
Basicially, I just said
that you hate/ diss football all the time, because it's the most popular sport in the world. If American football, baseball and basketball would be the no. 1,2 and 3 sports in the world, you wouldn't make 1237 threads about football per year. Envy comes from success. Since making countless threads about sth/sb is called being 'butthurt' here, I would call it this way.
I know you will turn it arround now and say that you only do it because we would get pissed about it, whatever makes you sleep at night.
I think golf is boring, but do I hate on it all the time?
But it may also result from the general resentment against Europe here.
Whatever, I'm done with this thread 8) cya
Makaveli's Food & Liquor:
Why are you lot always bitching about 'soccer'? If you don't like 'soccer' then don't watch it, it's really that simple. I don't like Baseball so guess what, i don't watch it. It's really not that difficult to understand
Also what exactly is so bad about draws? I've seen games finish 2-1 which were shite while i've seen games finish 0-0 which were awesome, you lot do get that 'soccer' is played in leagues where you get points for Wins/Draws right? When it's knockout it's either two legs or Overtime & Penalties
Chamillitary Click:
I think Golf is a cool sport. Especially to be play. But you won't see me sitting here saying it's the best sport ever because my country can't play any other sports.
Stop acting like your love for Soccer isn't PURELY based on some nationalistic shit. The entire country pulls for it, hence you follow your country. If Soccer was dominated by Americans & Europeans played Baseball or Football & your country still supported those sports like they did Soccer, you'd be in this very thread today shitting on Soccer & saying how Baseball is the best.
Soccer is based on "my country > your country", don't front.
