Who even likes soccer?

Soccer is the most watched sport in the world. It is also viewed as one of the most boring sports in the eyes of most people in the United States. If you go to almost any country outside the United States you would quickly learn that soccer is truly loved by other people. In the U.S soccer as seen as boring and low scoring, where as football is extremely exciting. Now i am not biased because i love football and soccer, but soccer certainly gets a bad reputation for being boring when it can be the most beautiful game to watch if you sit down and appreciate it. When you sit down to watch a 3 hour televised football game you are watching over an hour of commercials, and people standing in a circle around the ball. While watching a football game you are watching around 13 minutes of live action playing. Its completely ridiculous to think when the t.v time is estimated at 3 hours per game. On the flip side when you are watching soccer you are watching 90 full minutes of people playing. No T.V timeouts, no huddles, its pure playing. If you can appreciate the subtleties in soccer you can be amazed watching the things these athletes do for the 90 minutes they play.
