re: Why do Soccer Haters Hate Soccer so much?

Sure lack of exposure does. No one actually believes it's a commie sport, it's just a way to get under your skin.

Some people are pretty insistent. I remember one argument on the MSB where someone insisted that soccer was a communist sport because it didn't foster specialization in its positions. There have been some amazingly retarded arguments made against the sport on this website and others so I don't think you can speak for the beliefs of all those people. On the Internet it's difficult to tell, especially with the weird jingoism that appears in those sorts of threads.
