I highly doubt anyone will read this but I matter as well and update my blog.
On to the topic, it is extremely difficult to be a soccer fan in America. Why, you might ask? Well it is nearly impossible to watch all of the important games, or most games unless you purchase soccer channels from your cable provider. Also you have a 1 in every year chance to attend a soccer game and even if you do attend its only a MLS game. Not to be rude but MLS is nothing compared to the Premier League. It is still fun to watch though.
My second reason of not liking being a soccer fan in America is American ignorance when it comes to soccer. They all say it is boring, stupid and is only popular because other countries cant afford anything else. I argue with them but they are to naive and stubborn to accept that I am right. I use facts, research and logical reasoning, they use what they believe. I tell them 4.7 billion people watched games throught the season compared to 200 million in the NFL. "Well I gurantee that if the NFL was brought to England it would be more popular then soccer." Are you an idiot. No way in hell would that happen. ARGH!
Obviously people have different opinions but they still dont realize how ignorant they are to others culture... My final argument to them is that soccer is the best sport in the world because if they were to poll every human who is over 12 the majority of the votes would be to soccer.
