Seriously, I would just tell you, like others have told me when I state how boring football is, "Its just because you can't understand the game that you don't find it interesting. No, really. You just don't understand."
ROCK??? ROCK??? I don't live under no stinkin' rock!!! In vernacular my Uncle Nick used to use. Everything was "stinkin". LOL!!!

40 - yer just a pup! Soccer and Soccer fans like yourself have been saying that for 50 years, but yet soccer continues to be relegated to a tertiary sport. Soccer leagues are comprised of a few good athletes (like yourself), kids who can't play anything else, those that need exercise and sissy boys!!! Soccer is for Soccer Moms and much like Ice Cream - it's most enjoyed by women and small children!
