I think it's a pointless sport, not allowing you to use your hands, and then you play for 90 minutes and the final score of the game is 1-0, 2-1, or some other low scoring score. What a waste of time. No offense.

What the hell is Fifa? Does it involve throwing dead cattle at one another? (you crazy arabs!) ;)

FIFA fifa same thing. A video game. No yuyulating involved.

Hell yeah I love soccer! Middlesbrough's my team although they blow this year. I like Arsenal a lot too. I debate on whether I should like Man U though because it might be like rooting for the Yankees.

Usually I play MVP, but I've been hooked into FIFA, lately. I like the manager mode a lot. And the music and commentators are SO much better than MVP's.

I played soccer for 11 years(since I was 4).....I had to take this year off cuz I broke both my hands playing baseball over the summer, and even though you don't use your hands, you'd be surprised how much you need them, and once my hands wree fine, even thoyugh I'd be behind the 8-ball(I think thats how the saying goes) I broke my toe, so I just took the whole year off. I don't watch professional soccer, but I'll watch games I'm at...and movies about little kids playing soccer and green goats

Manchester United and Glasgow Celtic supporter.

 

I cannot wait until the World Cup, hopefully the US will play well.

 

I LOVE Celtic. I love you, cept for the Utd part.

 

It's a bhoy thing.

 

 

(By the way: You've all got it all wrong, Pro Evolution Soccer/World Soccer Winning Eleven is a better game than FIFA :lol: )

10 points clear of Hearts, we should take the league this year.

 

There are few things I love more than seeing Rangers 17 points back.

Yeah. They're going to get raped in the Champions League by Villarreal, too.

I think Arsenal got knocked out, right?

 

Death to you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

<_>

 

 

 

Yes, they've been playing s*** recently, and they've lost 4 out of the last 5. Chelsea will win it, and the league too. Hell, why not the Champions League, they're so f***ing rich. They remind me of another team I hate.

Not before matball though.

Damn you make a good point. Too bad I would get a better contract than you, seeing as how I was on the Varsity team, and how I own ass at it.

No offense to anyone but I hate soccer. It is retarted every game is like 1-0 ive even seen a bunch of 0-0 ties its just stupid. If they made the field about the size of a hockey rink and had like 5 players plus a goalie I think it would be pretty cool but with a huge field and like 10 players? on each team its stupid no one can score or anything its just dumb.

 

I remember a few years back they had this indoor soccer league exactly like what I'm talking about, I don't know if they still have it or not I mean I never followed it but still that would make it more exciting.

 

The fact is, soccer will never be really popular in the US its just not going to happen.

I really like the World Cup though. Maybe it's this skewered sense of nationalism, like the Olympics - "WE MUST WIN CURLING!". I mean normally who the fudge cares who can move the Romba-thing across the ice...but then it's this international competition and ya just CAN'T have China, Russia, or North Korea win (kidding...). :rolleyes:

 

That and what type of do Beckham sports, setting the int'l hairdo across every continent except the NA. (Waaaay overrated as a player, I'm glad if soccer doesn't catch on so that I don't have to see his face plastered on Pepsi).

 

2006 FIFA World Cup Draw:

We'll kick their asses.

 

Becks is probably the Jeter of soccer. Pretty good player, adored by women for his looks and by men because of his ability.

The U.S. kicking Italy's ass?? Unless Italy started sucking big time, they're not going to be easy.

Adoration is a mild word considering his insane popularity. Imo, David Beckham is overrated, and he's more of the Kournikova of soccer than he is Jeter. He's never captain a team, not even as a schoolboy, and somehow SGE thinks he's the perfect for the job. Whatever. Getting ejected in the '98 quarterfinals. :lol:

 

The U.S. probably can make it of its pool; hopefully Claudio Reyna recovers from his injury.
