The USA has it right: soccer sucks. That is all.

1. Not all Americans think so
I for one prefer European soccer (football) to American pigskin football (snore) hands down.

3. Yeah
And why is Obama going over there and talking? They know we can blow them all away in ten seconds. It was working so well when Bushie just threatened them. What about 'America rules the world' is Obama missing?

4. Respectfully disagree
European football is faster paced and more exciting to watch than American football.

6. I'll go further. ALL sports suck.
All sports is a training ground for rapists, thugs and psychopaths. And those are just the men. I'm afraid to consider what being a "competitor" does to women.
