why dont americans like football?

Don't make a blanket statement like that. As an American, I do enjoy watching soccer and playing as well. Both my daughters play and are competitive doing it. The thing here in the states is that we have so many choices and the sports most of us grew up on were Baseball, Basketball, and Football. All marketing/advertising is geared toward those sports.

So, I would politely disagree that Americans don't like soccer. We just view it in a different perspective when it comes to the other sports we do follow.

As for the blowhards saying "soccer sucks", grow up!
