NEWk1nks wrote you also forgot about NHL buddy...and you don't see it that much in America because soccer is boring to play and watch and America is the only country that realizes it...to be honest, I hate soccer and the player,lol baseball players are tougher than them and when their is a soccer fight..they kick, like wtf, its like watching a bunch of weak pist off girls running around and kicking a ball around on too big of a field and also most of the game the ball stays in the middle..its boring no one wants to watch a 2 hour game when the final score in like 3-2..go play and watch a real sport dude!
soccer/football probably has the biggest fanbase and the most passionate sport in the world.
You call soccer players wuss's which is not really true is it? about 1% of players actually mess about diving constantly. Most of them fake their injuries because it might help their team get an advantage.

i don't know how you can say go watch a real sport when we have rugby, which is actually more manly than your american football

rant over


If any sport that faking an injury helps your team, that is a wussy sport. I have played both hockey and soccer so I can give examples. I'm more of a stocky, thick kid. In soccer when I bump into someone and they dive, they get a free kick, but in a sport like hockey when you get hurt, you only hurt your team because now instead of a 5 on 5 it becomes a 5 on 4 because you are injured. Just because someone is stronger, it should be used against them. ITS SIMPLE.... SOCCER IS A WIMPY SPORT!

I don't get what you're trying to prove. Less people care about soccer in the US than any other of the 4 major sports here. Showing a bunch of europeans jump up and down because it's now 1-0 doesn't change anything.

I think this is what he is trying to prove

Breaks nose, skates off and comes back to finish the game


Breaks leg, finishes shift and still trys to stay in the play


Hit in the head, skates off on his own feet.

That an image of the CT scan

Hit in the eye, still manages to come back later in the season


Great moment in the playoffs a few years ago


3 bombs and still keeps taking them




Just a couple examples I found that were what he was talking about.

Human wrote So many single minded murricans here, soccer is a 'baby sport' at least our soccer players don't wear armour like your 'football' players


Don't get me wrong I occasionally like to watch soccer, but your post was soooo ignorant I had to post this, American Football players have to wear "armor" as you said because 250-300 lb guys are charging them when they have the ball and for the most part there is no contact that is on purpose in Soccer.
