because we like MANLY games! AMERICA ROCKS!
Because they diddn't invent it. But im surprised they diddn't rip it off like they did with rugby
Thats just another Euro Trash steriotype. Soccer ( Foot Ball )is the most played game by American youth to! Although I hate it and think its for pussies, a lot of people here play it.
Football has more contact and is considered a moremainly game, plus it teaches what a team is to youths better than soccer. And football is played more than soccer by kids. Pop Warner is the biggest youth organization in the us today.
Preperation H, the Americans didn't invent any sport they play except for basketaball. By the way, American kids *love* soccer. In the next generation, it will replace baseball as the national sport.
Basketball was invinted by a Canadian. He was an assistant coach at Kentucky. I think he was under Adolf Rupp?
Our short attention spans will not let us appreciate watching a ball get kicked around for 90 minutes in a contest ending in a nil-nil tie.
everyone loves football except for the yanks because they are shit at it
yea they are totally gay when it comes to soccer.stick to line dancing you FUCKING BENDERS!!
1)Low Scoring
2)Ties are common
3)Lack of big hits
4)Poor star potential
5)Doesn't attract urban athletes (cities don't have room for soccer fields)
6)Slow pace (baseball can get away with it because it's casual)
7)Lack of $$$$$
duk, American children love soccer because they are all of a similar skill level and it's easy. A 6 year old can't maybe a basketball shot from more than a couple feet away, hit a pitched baseball, skate well, or throw/catch a spiralling football.
mr_hat, if Americans CARED about soccer at all, we'd kick some ass. European and South American countries have it as their damn national sport and all the best athletes are recuited into soccer. NONE of the top American athletes go into soccer, yet we still have a decent team. And if you forgot, the US Women's team has kicked some ass as of late.
sayin now fools?
cuz its a dirty spik sport
I'm sorry. I must have been dozing off. What was the question again?
Soccer is great, but I prefer BASKETBALL!
Because you Euro Trash are to weak and feeble to compete with us Americans in a full contact sport!
its football not socer! !dam it u dum fuk yanks whop carnt invent ur own sports
fuk u gaymanbrian4christ if american 'footballers' are so tough y do they wear so much f**king pading
To ads21: in Spanish countries (where soccer is most popular), they call it fútbol, not football. (Which is pronounced similarly, but is not spelled the same.) As for American football, they call it fútbol americano (American football.) That's the proper way to refer to the sports in Spanish, but in English (or at least American English), fútbol is soccer and fútbol americano is football. Know it and accept it.
Though it would make more sense for soccer to be called football, since it is the sport where the players use their feet. Of course, the Spanish word for foot is pie and the Spanish word for ball is bola...
