why dont americans like football?

[Jewelee]

I'm an American and I love soccer! So does everyone in my family and all of my friends!

I have played soccer my whole life and I know quite a few Americans that enjoy soccer! All of the tournaments I wet to were PACKED with fans. And that was just U-20 travel soccer.

It is a great sport.. If more people would just try it, they would see how much fun it is.

Most of the people in the USA are more into American football, baseball or basketball. I'm a Mexican leaving here and all Mexicans here like soccer. Most of the kids in my high school don't like soccer they say its boring and only cheds play it ( Mexicans) and soccer is pretty new over here and its slowly getting more popular. And the final reason is Latin Americans and Canadians don't watch the MLS soccer league its not even broadcasted on tv exept for games like Chicago fire and LA galaxy and the people who do watch soccer here wach the Mexican leage or European Leages if the have Cable

Let me explain something here. To categorize all North Americans as individuals who don't like football is unfair. At least there are some Americans (myself included) who know what to call the game, as well as appreciate it for its beauty and passion. As for American football? Give me a match between Inter and Roma instead, and somebody tell Mancini to sit Materazzi down, for crying out loud! He's the one that caused the whole mess on the last day!

we love football, it's our favorite sport. the superbowl this past february was the second most watched event in the history of american television behind the final episode of M*A*S*H. it's soccer we don't like.

it unites the world my A*s!!! if it did then why do you have supporters beating each other over a game or why do you have the country that wins the world cup slinging racial put downs on all the other countries that lost?
