I think nuclear holocaust is more likely than the US winning the World Cup in the next fifty years.

Ewar Woowar posted:Just going to leave this here quote:Up top should feature the raw, physical talent that is Jozy Altidore. While his season at Sunderland has been quite woeful, this has been as much a fault of his teammates and lack of service rather than any personal failures. This is also a player who last year scored 31 goals for AZ Alkmaar of the Dutch soccer league and had an amazing run with the USA team last summer where he netted 7 times in 5 matches! Incredible what he can do with a capable team! At 24, Altidore is still young but is at that age when expectations become a reality. Hopefully he can put the tough season behind him and focus on what he can achieve at the World Cup! But fortunately, the USA has enough scoring midfielders in support so that the burden won’t fall solely upon his shoulders.

Imagine Don Juan Mata, his first touch is gentle, subtle, soft, romantic. He is the greatest lover of all time, with the most delicate of touches (no homo). And so he controls the ball with ease, immediately ready to flow into his next move, even when the pass has a lot of pace on it. Imagine the rapist, his first touch is rough, heavy, hard, brutal. He fiercely forces himself upon women, with a very hard and strong first touch. And so he controls the ball with difficulty, often having to use his next move to get it properly under control, especially when the pass has a lot of pace on it. Ironically, if you want to get the woman under control then the first touch of a rapist would be the preference. For that reason I do not like the term, getting the woman under control and getting the ball under control are two different things. With the ball one must be gentle, subtle, soft and romantic but with the woman one must be rough, heavy, hard and brutal.

Great victory for Fulham and I think they will be up as they probably have coach that is above their level so he will get them up the table. I have to say I want Norwich to go down so their disrespectful fans get what they deserve. The Premier League PR machine have done their best to sweep the Hughton stuff under the carpet, but a lot of the criticism Hughton got from some Norwich fans was of racial nature. Norwich not Man Utd, your a yo-yo club so why their fans feel they are entitled to stay in the EPL year in year out escapes me. When the stuff got thrown at Hughton last week it was an utter disgrace and reminded me of the the Republicans in America who feel they don't have to give the President the same level of respect afforded to Presidents of the past because he is brown. The sacking of Hughton has basically removed all chance of Norwich staying up. It couldn't happen to more sinister bunch of fans. I hope when they do get relegated with the kids coach, they say they had bad results due to the colour of his skin like they did with Hughton. The Premier League doesn't need rural latent bigotry.

Its no wonder that we all hate soccer and ridicule it when eurotrash and third world immigrants try to push it down our throats. I beleive it is entirely correct for us to hate soccer, no matter what the foreigners say because the game is inherently trying to push very unAmerican ideas into our culture which celebrates superiority of one team over another (which is why we hate ties), winning and masculinity (not kicking a ball and falling over to cry) and fast paced excitement (lots of scoring and statistics). Here are some good reasons why soccer sucks and will never be respected in America: 1. Soccer is the essence of unmanly sport, the objective is to use your legs (like a girl) to prance around the field jogging and kicking a ball. You can't even use your upper body, which is the essence of masculinity. The only other sports where the lower body takes prominence over the upper body are figure skating and gymnastics, another two girly sport. Manly sports like football and boxing and baseball are all played with the hands. Men complement women on their legs, while women compliment men on their big strong arms. Hence any sport that uses the legs is more suited to women. 2. Soccer is so easy, it takes no skill since you just have to kick a ball. The best a soccer player can ever accomplish in any other sport is to be a football kicker. No soccer player could ever play any position in any other sport because other sport like basketball and baseball and football and hockey require physical strenght and skill. 3. Soccer is boring, nothing ever happens in soccer just kicking for 4 hours and 0-0 scorelines. High scoring sports are exciting while low scoring sports are boring. But at least in hockey there are fights, which is manly, soccer has nothing manly. 4. Soccer just seeps uncoolness or weakness: the smallest, weakest and least intimidating "athletes" play soccer. The average size of a soccer player is what 5'8 120lb? America is all about being the dominant alpha male (that's why we're the most dominant country in the world) while soccer is a sport for the beta males. The best soccer player in the world is David Beckham and he would get crushed by the weakest NFL players. 5. Soccer is the third world lowest common denominator sport. Its only "popular" in other countries because it takes less skill than any other sport and can be played by the most unskilled and is cheaper than any other sport. If someone invents a sport that is cheaper and less skilled (and that would be a hard achievement since soccer is so easy and dirt cheap), that sport would immediately overtake soccer as the "most popular sport in the world". These foreign countries don't like soccer because there is something good about it, they simply have no other sport except soccer because they can't afford bats and plastic pads and basketballs, they just kick a bunch of plastic bags rolled up into a ball and the game takes no skill so you don't need coaches, trainers and equipment. Soccer is "the most popular sport in the world" only because the world has no choices and freedom to choose sports. Other countries have to resort to soccer but would gladly take any other sport. look at how baseball's WBC has taken over or how basketball is now going to be bigger than soccer everywhere in the world. So, those are my reasons and I think the majority would agree with me. Now I realize that someone will come up and whine how "other countries don't think that!" but this is how I and the average American male view soccer.

More than just covering the month-long event, the media are already doing their best to hype it, overstating its popularity in the United States and its potential appeal to U.S. sports fans. From Time magazine dedicating an entire issue to "The Global Game," to CBS's helpful "The World Cup Guide for Americans," the public is being brow-beaten to catch "World Cup Fever."
