The venues could hold many people since the playing area is very large.

It's 100% improvisation. That's the main reason. Creativity is happening constantly. Just because the majority of America doesn't appreciate it doesn't mean it's not true. Hockey is a great example of an unappreciated sport. Just like soccer, it's improvisation. You can argue cycling (in hockey) is less, but the majority is free-flowing.

Compare those two sports to baseball. As an American from age 12, I was taught where to play and where to move in ANY given situation in baseball. If a ball is put in play towards a 2B, I cover as a SS. If it hits a gap, I cut off to relay depending on base-runners and amount of outs.

The fact that people think our sports like baseball are so strategic is embarrassing. People site Jeters relay to beat Oakland as some amazing play, when it actuality its a RARE example of improvisation in baseball outside of pitching. All sports require skill, some require improvisation the entire game.

Not going to comment on American Football since I respect it way more than baseball.

Same reason McDonalds is popular. It’s accessible to poor people.



If you fall in with the majority in anything in life you may want to rethink what you’re doing, lol.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Overwhelming opinion is for Messi, in case you were not aware. Given your age and nickname - I'm guessing you're definitely not aware.

Edit: you are definitely not aware. You're another juvenile mental midget who should've stayed in school:

OP didn't even mention baseball, jackass

Don't even bother talking "strategy" as being a selling point in soccer, American football is the most strategic team sport played right now.

the rules are simple, every loser on the planet can let his brain loose out on the fields and enjoy it without thinking much about why a certain tactic is played. and it's not that boring, unless you watch serie a.

Why so mad? LOL

Ronaldo is more complete than messi. And its not me who is not aware.


And thats actually funny that you think you know me because I said "Ronaldo is the best player in the world." You need help.

So delusional.

I don't get why people like NFL, most of the time they seem to be waiting for the next play. Hardly any actual game time.

lmao at Americans coping by saying it's a smarter game and has more tactics and chit.. Who the fuk cares? It's entertainment and the most entertainment you guys get in the Super Bowl are the advertisements and the verbal/physical fights before and after the game between the fans of each team..

It's legit the most boring sport to watch and I've honestly tried to get "into" it. I've tried watching world cup finals, Australia in the world cup etc. I end up channel flicking everytime. I even went to a game this year when an EPL side came to Aus to play Western Sydney and I left at half time lol.

I think the appeal of soccer is tied to the persons sense of their national identity and culture and the feeling of belonging to a group.

I don't know about other countries, but in Australia soccer fans do this thing where they turn their back to the game and don't watch. They even did this in the CHAMPIONSHIP game. How ****ing retarded. Imagine a Superbowl or whatever where the game is on the line and you turn away to dance with your friends.

45 x 2 minutes, no stupid commercial breaks every 1 minute. American football takes 4 hours and involves only 11 minutes of real play time. European football is superior in every single aspect, only americans deny this. But they are usually out of touch with the rest of the world.Enjoy your ''World Series'', I'm going to see the real deal in Russia this summer.
