I kept watching, expecting it to make sense at some point. But alas, it never did.

Soccer is still for pussies not even Mario can change that.

and how is that suppose to impress me? a bunch of no name soccer players dying is suppose to show me how tough the sport is? oh please if they were real athletes they would have better conditioning and would have better safety precautions.
lol someone running into a concrete wall and dying isn't tough, it's stupid.

@Solace dude dude dude ok you made it this way so dont complain later. Is it smart to smash into a group of guys, no. Is it smart to run down a field and get tackled to the ground going full speed doing god knows how much damage to your backs. Is it smart to throw balls going 90 mph plus at each other. In soccor its not about brut force i want to see an american football player play football. And you calling it football makes no sence.

Needs music to go along with it. On second thought, a stadium of soccer fans doing the "Mario theme" in soccer-chant form would be amazing!!

you run back and forth across a field and kick a ball? there you go that's soccer in a nutshell. btw this has nothing to do with popularity, i could care less if soccer is the most popular sport in the world. the popularity also has to do with the fact that it's cheap to play and anyone could join in.

Both of you need to go back to elementary school and learn basic grammar and punctuation before you go on being douchebags so at least you don't make both of your anti-soccer and pro-soccer arguments completely illegible.

@TheyDidItFirst - Your comment made me laugh. Truth be told soccer is a really difficult sport to master and Solace is just jealous because he can't play.

You need to stop placing the Americans tht love soccer in the dumb f! Duck cat. I love soccer always have, born and raised in the good ol' U S of A as well. I don't say all English people drink tea and have bad teeth! Go defend soccer somewhere else that people will listen. GTFO my Internet

Cause with American football, its much more manly to have a bunch of big sweaty guys in tight fitting cloths pile up on top of each other. Nothing gay about that. Top that off with a good'ol pat on the butt.

US Football:
Run for 7 seconds. Take a break for 35. Repeat.
Baseball:
Screw around for a few minutes. Maybe swing the bat. Run 90 feet. Take a break. Wait a few more minutes. Run 90 more feet. Repeat.
Soccer:
Run for 45 minutes. Take a break for 15. Run for 45 more minutes, all the while leaping into the air, slide-tackling opponents, and avoiding similar tackles.
Yep, soccer is definitely for pussies.
Idiot.
Yep, throwball players are so tough... with all their padding...

Consoles can sponsor things? Do they also get involved in politics? Wonder if the Xbox is opposed to healthcare reform.
