Default Re: Why I love soccer.

The objective of this post is not to keep arguing.
I just want you to know that I watched game 2, game 4 , game 5, game 6 and game 7 last year.
I take a red sox vs yanks series over any Champions League semi-final in which Im not emotionally involved( Ie: Liverpool)...hmm let me think..yes I cant really think of a CL semi-final I can pick over a red sox vs nyy series( Im not emotionally involved..i want red sox to win but I wont be depressed next day after a devastating loss)

i wasnt arguing. the thing about these things is that its all about the emotional involvement, and americans just dont feel it about soccer. mostly because of the history of soccer (or lack therof). the sox yanks rivalry has tons of history in the US, and the MLS has none. that explains it, and vice versa.
