So apparently this soccer is a pretty big deal, but not to me.

Are you like me? Do you have only a passing interest in soccer? I have never followed soccer closely at all, I do however respect the game and the players, but to be completely honest, I will probably watch my team's baseball game on the day that the World Cup final is played. I have enjoyed watching the games, the pageantry and the enthusiasm of the fans is really quite remarkable, but I just think that at this point in my life being a soccer fan just ain't gonna happen. I remember thinking to myself during the U.S Hockey Team's run in this Olympics was going to finally turn me into a hockey fan. Not only did I not watch a hockey game after the Olympics but i was happy that the season was over so I wouldn't have to sit through hockey highlights on SportsCenter any longer. I will promise to try hard to join the world community of soccer fans, however I dont see myself ever really getting in to it. Unless the U.S. wins of course.

I have been a huge football fan for many years
b/c I spent time in England and became friends with a Chelsea player
But I get why few in the US are THAT into it as the US just isn’t a hotbed for talent or teams that are worldwide dominant
Soccer
I’ve watched soccer sputter in the U.S. since Pele was the spokesperson and i’ve watched school kids play the game for over thirty years. American Football is where my sports heroes are and that will never change. The only way I would become a fan of soccer is if ladies played it naked and then there is the chance that I would become a fan of Brazil.
