I've tried in multiple world cups to get into it, I inevitably lose interest. Besides it being slow a couple things bother me. Why doesn't the clock count down like every other sport? I don't understand the extra time thing, they just go into overtime even if someone has a lead?

How many 0-0 games have you watched so far?

The extra time is to keep teams from deliberately waiting time since the clock never stops. As far as the clock counting up, what does that matter?

Why do the crowds constantly make annoyingly repetitive sounds? I'm trying to watch the current match and the Ivory Coast fans are making this repetitive buzzing sound. I'm about to turn the shite off. I can't imagine watching this with the surround sound turned up.

It doesn't matter, i just doesn't make any sense why they do it like that.

As far as soccer being boring, the World Cup is boring. I can't stay interested for an entire game.

It's like a first date, it lasts 3 hours and usually nobody scores.

Soccer is a faster game than football.

Not really. Only if you don't know what to look for.

Best thing about WC soccer is the lack of commercials during play. Allows you to really get into the game.



Big beautiful grass field on the HD tv, no commercials....it's not bad.

So far, there have been exactly 0 ties in the world cup and ONE 1-0 game.

I played baseball my whole life, and that is one boring arse sport to watch.

I like it but don't watch it but when country's pride is on the line, I love it. I can watch anything if the usa is competing.

lol @ people thinking throwing 11 athletic guys together results in a great soccer team.


You're a DUMBASS. Obviously, athleticism is all that matters in EVERY sport.

This is my proposed Ryder Cup team:

1) Lebron James
2) Adrian Peterson
3) Calvin Johnson
4) Kevin Durant
5) Michael Westbrook
6) Jadaveon Clowney
7) Richard Sherman
8) Andrew McCutchen
9) Chris Paul

Captain's pick:
10) Anthony Davis
11) Drew Brees
12) Steph Curry

Europeans would have NO chance.

I find it funny that so many people think football is always so exciting. I have watched countless football games where a team didn't score for 45 minutes and I had to sit thought 30 min of commercials.
