i'm sure you'll agree

yet they manage to pay a soccer player more then the USA manages to play their top football player

if you guys ever nurture the perfect player, he'd be playing for chelsea or barcelona [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Soccer is in their culture and revenue comes from all over the world, not only their economy. The US culture isn't interested in soccer. If it was it would be the focus of high school and college sports which would in turn generate amazing players that would dominate world competition. As long as soccer isn't a part of our culture and the US ignores it then they obviously won't be good at it.

It is the same reason the US isn't good at cricket or rugby. A country can only dominate so many sports and our culture chooses football, basketball and baseball over all others.

It isn't reasonable to think a significant % of the US population will apply themselves to a sport no one else cares about, dedicating their lives to a sport no one comes and watches or supports, with the end goal of moving abroad even though they could make more money doing that. Our society lacks the support, competition or infrastructure for soccer because there isn't enough interest.

Get over it.

No one said people outside of the US care. The US is doing just fine, don't worry about us.

Soccer is for the economically destitute and poor of spirit. Its literally a sport birthed by poor 3rd world countries because they had nothing else.

Do you see people playing dice in Vegas? LOL. And no, I don't mean craps idiots. That's actually an advanced rich mans game that requires an expensive table to play.

I'm talking about 4-5-6, lucky 7, that ghetto shit.

Answer: No Poor people shit sucks that's why you don't see hood dice games in Vegas. Same reason you don't see soccer in America. Its poor on every level. Everything is fucking poor about it.

Now fuck off and go back to blue derpcake

If your country isn't in debt, you're most likely third world. Pretty sure the US has been in debt for 90% of it's existence. Maybe the debt is what makes us so good at sports. GL in the Olympics.

this post addresses none of his points though.

"its popular with so many participants" doesn't change the history of soccer, or the gross amount of 3rd world involvement. You would play our sports if you had the same amount of countries participating in American sports.

They can't participate though because:

1) You lack the athletes to compete

2) The world lacks the money

Your list of participants is due to accessibility. A soccer athlete requires less nutrients, less food, less genetics, and less coordination, than any other sport. Feet are the most developed and coordinated part of the human body on a lanky small person. There is nothing special about kicking a ball.

Lets see these soccer guys play any other sport. They can't because their genetics are too poor-mouthed and destitute. Their DNA is so bankrupt that they can only play soccer.

Michael Jordan was able to excel at 3 pro sports proving the American athlete superior.

Chronoburn's post (at this time): sustained.

until further debate.
