USA-Ghana group stage soccer TV ratings beat the NBA Finals

[Mr. Tacoma]

Nobody is asking you to justify your interests or convert you.

Which is why I've refrained from doing so.

The question is, why do so many of you soccer haters fear its undeniable growth?

If Soccer wasn't growing here, the EPL would've just stayed on the Fox Soccer Channel but instead it moved to ESPN for a few years and now it is on NBC Networks with a game being showed on NBC at least once a week. NBC wouldn't waste their money on the EPL contract if it was not growing

Why do soccer lovers think because some people don't like it that they're afraid of it or it's popularity? I think NBA basketball sucks too, doesn't mean Ima skeered. It's not like it's a spider or something.

LOL, some of these soccer folks should really get over themselves. I just don't see an instance where the popularity of soccer in America is gonna affect anything in my everyday life, much-less threaten the way I go about living it.

Unless there's some sort of correlation between the popularity of soccer and it making one ghey from the uber gheyness the sport exudes.

Soccer was entirely created to turn Americans into a bunch of limp-wrested homosexuals. The fact that it comes from Europe proves its lack of heterosexuality and masculine toughness, which is why the foreigners keep pushing it here, to make America weaker. The more soccer grows in America, the weaker American Exceptionalism becomes.

My motivations are drawn from neither hate nor fear. It's more from the paltry amusement of mocking something silly and watching the reactions of those who take it seriously.

I'd mock curling just as much if it's fans learned how to show enough righteous indignation to amuse me.

Because many of you make such a point to shit talk it any time it's brought up. Especially the notion that it's growing. Again, I don't give a rats ass if you like it. Just shut the fuck up about it.

Well since you say its silly it must be true.

Soccer becoming popular in America is the equivalent to the death of American exceptionalism. If you love America, you oppose this foreign sports terrorism.

 

[Mr. Tacoma]

bconngemini, how many threads are you gonna spam with that thing?

No one's gonna read it man. I'm sorry.

Or it could just be a sport that I don't like but enjoy messing with it's fans every few years when it comes around on this level. It's not really as deep as y'all seem to think it is.

Or I'll keep fucking with you about since it obviously rustles you like a hurricane.

My word isn't law! It's a conversation son, don't get your jimmies all rustled.

Take a deep breath, look over my posts on this subject and try to imagine how a warped sense of humor might motivate someone to post they way they do.

Interesting description, I do see many similarities between soccer & terrorism. Perhaps some drone strikes are in order.

Don't get all serious on me Doobs. I can't handle that at a time like this.

P.S. How was your trip?
