All sports are childish and ridiculous, one no more-so than the other. Soccer is no better or worse than all the sports Americans tend to worship. It's all a bunch of crap, and the world can keep their sports and shove it.
Snake, I used to play a lot of football as a kid, and I'm definitely not fat.. But since then I've gone off it as a spectator sport. Unless you're watching Brazil play, or a team with equal flair then it's just all the same. It get's boring. It's always fun to have a kick about once in a while though, but people take sport far too seriously. It's like a religion. These days it's more about the money than anything else as well.. Can't be beaten as a game for kids though.

just about anything is better than american football, bunch of pansies running around for 5 sec at a time in full body pads
To people who dislike football- Have you ever played football as a child?...
