Soccer, or football as it is called in the other areas of the planet is about the poorest excuse for a game I've ever seen. Trying to sit through a whole soccer match can push thoughts of suicide into your mind. I'd honestly rather watch 10 baseball games in succession than one period/quarter/whartever of soccer (I think I'd even sit through TV coverage of golf before watching soccer, but I'm not anxious to test that theory). As for the lower primates who enjoy this crap: simple minds are easily amused (very easily). I think the reason that this "sport" hasn't faded into oblivion is tradition, because it sure as heck can't be entertainment.
