My friend and I watched a soccer game tonight. Switzerland versus Wales, however, it was completly boring. My friend and I started to compare Soccer with Skiing.

Our conclusion
Soccer has like one or two goals a match and maybe two decent fouls. That's it! Skiing offers non stop spectacle. When a skiier doesn't perform his his correctly, he has to face serious consequences. If it comes down to a crash, soccer players pretend to be hurt and play on after a couple steps limping aroung. Skiers are much sicker. They get up and try it again.

Soccer, like all sports, is noticeably more exciting to watch when you understand the game than if you don't. Generally to understand the game you'll have had to play a fair amount, and if you do you'll no doubt enjoy watching it.

I find baseball to be the most boring sport ever largely because I don't understand the smaller details/nuances. However, if I were to learn to appreciate things like what pitch is most likely coming, when to bunt, etc. I'm sure I would like watching it more.

How can you think soccer is boring when it brought you Di Canio??

obviously never played: don't understand what it's about.

totally different from skiing, and I like it that way.

soccer: competitive, team player, rough, hard/physical exerting.

skiing: fun, group/crew, gets you stoked, and it's all about having a good time.

not the same thing..

best sport in the world! The world game, the beautiful game!! The game that is the common language that unites the world no matter their race, nationality, culture and religious background! A gigantic and extroardinary game that dwarfs any other sport in the world, a massive almost unquantifiable business sport. Most watched sport in the world. Each country has it's own unique football culture.It is a science and an art, and has the most passionate fans of any sport.

Australia vs Oman World Cup qualifier tonight!!!

C'mon you Socceroos!!!

Soccer is really big here in Sweden and I got to say it sucks. Everybody is watching it all the time and it´s allways on the sportchannels. I don´t really see the point of it all and as OP said... Just about nothing happens in a game.

i don`t think you can take away the name ''football'' from any american. i think that they don't give a fuck about how it's called.
