This is not a beautiful game. These are supposedly among the best teams in the world yet much of what I’m seeing is off target shots, terrible passes, awkward ball handling and men falling down all over the place. “The awkward game” would be a better name

Imagine watching basketball but every other shot was an airball and every other pass was bad. And the flopping was five times as bad as the NBA and there were three times as many turnovers. That’s soccer.

Yeah I have a theory about soccer. The only reason people watch it is because it’s like gambling. It’s incredibly boring until someone scores, and you get baited into thinking someone’s gonna score only for it to be an easy save or complete miss. It’s like gambling but the bit hits are goals

Not that it’s easy to score or that the sport lacks skill. It takes a lot to get into a position to score. But from a spectator’s perspective, it’s very boring

I mean it’s almost free to play so that explains the worldwide following. But yeah boring to watch. I mean what other game has so little going on that the fans have to make up elaborate songs to sing while they’re watching so they don’t get bored?
