Fun fact

The Netherlands is the team that ranks almost at the bottom of possession (40%) only Iran and Honduras have had less possession (39%/37%).

Soccer would be the worlds #1 team sport if it weren't for religion.

Soccer is a religion, isn't it? It certainly gives religion vibes. When a team shoots on your teams goal, your heart sinks every time. When they score you get depressed. When your team scores you are overtaken with euphoric glee. Pretty sure that's a big reason why it's so popular. The low scoring and extremely difficult to score nature really is a conductor for this because you try to recreate these highs and lows constantly. Your team becomes something you actually place faith in.

It's both scary and awesome.

I was thinking of Post World Cup earlier, and man, I love post world cup. A bunch of players stock are going to increase and it will be fun seeing where they end up club wise. I was mostly thinking this cause of how much Inter sucks now and I'd like to see them pick up some high profile world cup players.

I wonder if Dempsey will receive a lot of interest if he keeps on the great run.

Dempsey will likely want to stay in MLS to help build American soccer

Shots on goal and a low scoring atmosphere = religion ???

It creates similar feelings found in religion. It's not obviously religion 1:1. The emotions are there.

Science even backs this up.

Are you high right now? Did you just make a really badly supported analogy and when I questioned you on it you just googled "sport religion" and pasted the first URL you saw?

The original analogy wasn't that serious to begin with, breh.

Dempsey scored the fastest recorded goal in world cup history. So shocked to see this coming from an American.

Nigeria - Argentina
Bosnia - Iran
Honduras - Switzerland
Ecuador - France

Messi is bringing it for Argentina.

Him and Robben are so crucial for their teams.

He's certainly very different from a top athlete like Ronaldo, although his physique helps him in his own ways. His high step frequency and low center of gravity make him so quick and unpredictable in dribblings and 1 on 1 situations.

The only thing about Coulter's article that stood out to me is that -- as someone who identifies as liberal -- I'm apparently behind the 8-ball in regards to the metric system. I'm perfectly content with the Imperial system myself, but I guess I need to up my game.

Soccer - Moral Decay lol.

Let me sledgehammer this tissue of lols.


Quote
(1) Individual achievement is not a big factor in soccer.

bwwaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Oh god... STOP STOPPPPPPPPPPPP

Quote
"In soccer, the blame is dispersed"
oh god, please .... stop.... good lol....

Quote
"There are no heroes, no losers, no accountability"
Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahaaaa. This is on the levels of wrong associated with : "Name a fruit that begins with the letter B?" and answering with "Thursday!"

Quote
Do they even have MVPs in soccer?

Players player of the year, Club player of the year, youth player of the year, most improved of the year (all per club)
Sports writters player of the year, Players Player of the year, PFA player of the year
Balon D'or, Golden Boot etc

Quote
"a ball accidentally goes in."
yup - almost always by accident. Messi is just lucky

(2) Liberal moms like soccer because it's a sport in which athletic talent finds so little expression that girls can play with boys. No serious sport is co-ed, even at the kindergarten level.


Quote
(3) No other "sport" ends in as many scoreless ties as soccer. This was an actual marquee sign by the freeway in Long Beach, California, about a World Cup game last week: "2nd period, 11 minutes left, score: 0:0." Two hours later, another World Cup game was on the same screen: "1st period, 8 minutes left, score: 0:0." If Michael Jackson had treated his chronic insomnia with a tape of Argentina vs. Brazil instead of Propofol, he'd still be alive, although bored.


The last Argentina vs Brazil game ended 2-1 and the game before that ended 4-3 , your gormless fuckwit. I know FACTS and REALITY aren't what people like Clutzer do, but still...



Quote
Even in football, by which I mean football, there are very few scoreless ties -- and it's a lot harder to score when a half-dozen 300-pound bruisers are trying to crush you.


Comparing Apples to Dingos here, makes little sense at all.

Quote
(4) The prospect of either personal humiliation or major injury is required to count as a sport.

we've had deaths in soccer and people having there legs snapped in half. And of course, limited padding and protection if you want to get all macho and sh1t. If this means so much to you, dump American Football and adopt Hurling/AFC/Rugby League
Quote
(5) You can't use your hands in soccer. (Thus eliminating the danger of having to catch a fly ball.) What sets man apart from the lesser beasts, besides a soul, is that we have opposable thumbs. Our hands can hold things. Here's a great idea: Let's create a game where you're not allowed to use them!


You're a fucking idiot who has no idea what they are talking about. Why do American Footballers not just pass the ball all the time! RULES_?! PANZY STUFF!



Quote
(6) I resent the force-fed aspect of soccer. The same people trying to push soccer on Americans are the ones demanding that we love HBO's "Girls," light-rail, Beyonce and Hillary Clinton. The number of New York Times articles claiming soccer is "catching on" is exceeded only by the ones pretending women's basketball is fascinating.


11 Million people watched the last US game in the US. 11 Million. I was about to say that "no one had a gun to their head telling them to watch" - but hey... in America you can never be sure!


Quote
(7) It's foreign. In fact, that's the precise reason the Times is constantly hectoring Americans to love soccer. One group of sports fans with whom soccer is not "catching on" at all, is African-Americans. They remain distinctly unimpressed by the fact that the French like it.


OOH SWEEEET LANNND OF LIIIIIBERTY - Mentally stunted.


Quote
(8) Soccer is like the metric system, which liberals also adore because it's European. Naturally, the metric system emerged from the French Revolution, during the brief intervals when they weren't committing mass murder by guillotine.


Historically inaccurate and babbling nonsense.


Quote
Despite being subjected to Chinese-style brainwashing in the public schools to use centimeters and Celsius, ask any American for the temperature, and he'll say something like "70 degrees." Ask how far Boston is from New York City, he'll say it's about 200 miles.


And us europeans (and most the rest of the world will say) "Why not join us in the modern world?"


Quote
Liberals get angry and tell us that the metric system is more "rational" than the measurements everyone understands. This is ridiculous. An inch is the width of a man's thumb, a foot the length of his foot, a yard the length of his belt. That's easy to visualize. How do you visualize 147.2 centimeters?


holy shit - doesn't even know the actual definition of inch, foot and yard. And how the f-ck does "the length of a mans belt" turn out to be some sort of easier to visualise metric in this thick shites head? HOW LONG IS THAT PIECE OF STRING?!


Quote
(9) Soccer is not "catching on." Headlines this week proclaimed "Record U.S. ratings for World Cup," and we had to hear -- again -- about the "growing popularity of soccer in the United States."


You've used the same point twice here....

Quote
Run-of-the-mill, regular-season Sunday Night Football games average more than 20 million viewers; NFL playoff games get 30 to 40 million viewers; and this year's Super Bowl had 111.5 million viewers.


okay - so if the USA-Portugal game is within 10% of Sunday Night Football figures for your national sport how is it not catching on? Or is this the nail in the coffin for Sunday Night Football ?! Sounds like it must be really unpopular if Soccer is coming close to it's figures , you rancid milk sop.


Quote
If more "Americans" are watching soccer today, it's only because of the demographic switch effected by Teddy Kennedy's 1965 immigration law. I promise you: No American whose great-grandfather was born here is watching soccer. One can only hope that, in addition to learning English, these new Americans will drop their soccer fetish with time.


What a wankpot!



Man there is nothing better than reading Coulter - she is thick as pigshit and is a constant ignorance feed regardless of whatever topic she is talking about. It does help when these mouthpieces roam outside of their more comfortable zone because they expose themselves time and time again.

Another glorious piece of ignorant babble from another of the worlds massive wastes of valuable carbon

Take pot shots at the bloodbath of the French Revolution while staning for a country whose own republicanism developed in conjunction with widespread human slavery, ethnic cleansing of tribal peoples, and a civil war that killed 600+ thousand people brehs.

Tomorrow's match is at 9am pacific time right? It's going to struggle to top the ratings of the Portugal game.

The World Cup has the advantage of going against nothing but Baseball right now, and MLB would be on life support without the latino demo. That latino demo would rather watch soccer to begin with, so the World Cup's only competition isn't much of a competition. I am curious to see how much viewership is left once US/Mexico bow out.
