For a Month, call me Fùtbol Junkie

Being from Mexican decent, and my father being a huge Mexico Soccer fan, I do follow the Mexican National team a little. But man, I get pumped for the World Cup!

Who's with me!?

USA USA USA "I BELIEVE THAT WE WILL WIN I BELIEVE THAT WE WILL WIN!"

God bless America! We Love You For Ever and Ever!

Your welcome Mexico!

They will be more exciting too.

Top level soccer is awesome.

I love watching golf so I have patience. Watching those clowns flop all over the ground when not even touched faking injuries makes me ill. Not to mention the game often ends 0 - 0 after what seems like 10 hours on a field that looks like 5 city blocks, lol. And you dont even know when the game is going to end in that extra time crap.

This.

Ignorant people who have never been anything close to resembling an athlete hate soccer.

Since this is a football forum...are you telling me every WR doesn't act like it was pass interference every time a guy was near them?

And that's in a CONTACT sport!!

That EXTRA TIME CRAP...is because they don't stop the clock for every little thing...one of the greatest things in all of organized sports is how you can not foul someone to stop play if it would take away their advantage (I.e. they still get past you/one on one with goalie etc).

But hey, Joe Pantoliano said it best in the Matrix, right? ;-)

I appreciate your having a dislike for the game. No issue with that. I think hockey sucks. I dislike baseball for a whole host of reasons. And basketball? Don't even get me started.

There is a beauty to soccer with its ebbs and flows you do not see in other sports. The World Cup is a tournament. The only goal for the first round is to get to the secound round. Consequently, you will see team scratching for a draw.

Your opinion is your own and I strongly disagree with it. What you call clowns and "extra crap time" simply prove you don't have an understanding of the game. No worries. You and I will never agree on this or on hockey.

Just wait for July when the ultimate in sporting events takes place! Viva la Tour!!

This was honestly a pretty damn good post Robby. Maybe not your previous one, but this one answered all the critics.

Today I stand tall right beside you futboljunkies! Its an event that brings the world together regardless of money and worldly problems and we can bond for a month watching the most popular sport on earth. I too am a huge fan of Mexico. But I have best friends who are Italian, Argentinian, Brazilian and Greek. So i'm gonna route for a bunch of teams but look out for Germany they might win it all.

I will add this, we can make our point across to other without the name calling. We all respect each other, and know the boundaries, so lets' play within them.

Soccer is pretty awesome live on television it is the worst thing ever

Ha- I enjoy watching golf too. Takes patience to enjoy that too. Especially if the scoring to win the tournament is around even par. Also, I like low scoring football, basketball & Baseball games. Guess I like to watch a good defensive game. The flopping is annoying but its part of the game- just like it is in basketball.

Figured you'd learn by now about posting crap like this. Name calling was cool in middle school.

Acting like there's pass interference and this crap is 100% different..

Howdy, Stranger!
