I think maybe if they decreased the field size a bit and made the goal smaller it would make the game more exciting. Also wtf with soccer offsides. The other problem is that the players are so pathetic diving everywhere. I think a variation of soccer could be the great world sport, I realize it already is, but it could be so much better than it is.

The problem is simple: you have the attention span of a whore in a dick factory.

Honestly though, watching sports just isn't for everyone. Just like computer gaming or midget fisting. Sometimes, people like things you don't, and that's okay, you autistic little scamp, you.

Hockey is not way more physical than football. Football is as physical as it gets until you get to sports like MMA. Hockey is definitely up there though. There are some really good hits in hockey, but football is two teams crashing into each other every single play, and players constantly get injured. Their brains are rattled so much that the average lifespan of an NFL player is like 50-something years.

Football is physical enough that I don't want my 2 year old nephew playing it. I know what I went through and the head and shoulder injuries I suffered. These days coaches and parents are a lot more aware of head injuries but still, it's a brutal game that can seriously screw you up if not paralyze or kill you. I'd rather him wrestle and do BJJ like I did, where you can satisfy your aggressive urges but not subject yourself to concussions and bone-crunching hits.

Baseball like I said is a lot more fun to play than it is to watch, and it's nowhere near as intellectual as football. Football is incredibly complicated.

Can someone explain why quality is defined by how much running and sweat is involved?

professional sports invented by the elite in late 19th/early 20th century to distract the slaves.

why hoop and holler about politics when you can identify with a sports "team" and get release of competitive primal instincts that way?

If we got as riled up about politics as we do sports then maybe we could prevent the scumbags from flushing this country down the toilet

rofl keep sipping on that kool aid
