Date: July 15th, 2026 1:58 PM Author: Well, I dropped the depth charges onto him (gunneratttt) Flopping happens in just about every sport TBF, but I agree soccer is so egregious. Seems like the rule changes have reduced it significantly. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5882929&forum_id=2).#50001910) |
|
Date: July 15th, 2026 2:00 PM Author: nihilistic violent extremist (✅🍑) flopping doesn't happen in any other sport to any of this degree, partly because there is a huge incentive to do it in faggotball and virtually no incentive in any other sport how about they change the rules the following way and I will reconsider: (1) abolish the off-side rule, and (2) permit tackling of a player who is on the ball |

Date: July 15th, 2026 2:07 PM Author: Well, I dropped the depth charges onto him (gunneratttt) Happens all the fucking time in basketball dude. Drawing fouls is a huge part of the game. Pretty frequently in the NFL too to get an injury timeout. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5882929&forum_id=2).#50001951) |

Date: July 15th, 2026 1:47 PM Author: Darnell every four years, i fall back in love with soccer and plan to watch more, especially the top euro leagues. ultimately, the time difference and regular life gets in the way. after a couple college football games on saturday, i rarely want to watch more sport
every now and then, i'll catch a premier league game on saturday morning because the college football pregame shows have become so gay and retarded |
|
Date: July 15th, 2026 1:50 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) I just don't see how this sport can ever gain traction here. Huge time difference to see the best players, low scoring, frustrating rules like offsides, and we have so many other options because most of the best leagues and athletes are here.

Date: July 15th, 2026 1:54 PM Author: Darnell the percentage of millennial and younger men who are into euro soccer is huge and growing. and it will continue to grow as the hispanic population increases. of course the nfl will likely remain top dog but i could see combined soccer (euro leagues + MLS) displacing mlb in terms of tv viewership.

Date: July 15th, 2026 2:05 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) which euroleagues? british, french, spanish, turkish? there are too many leagues. the best players are scattered everywhere. on top of the timing differences, there's just too much friction like this to make this an accessible sport for us and that's before we even talk about the product itself which hasn't resonated with american audiences for 100+ years.

Date: July 15th, 2026 1:56 PM Author: Well, I dropped the depth charges onto him (gunneratttt) The last sentence is the biggest obstacle, particularly because top athletic talent here is going to play a different sport. It's like watching the WNBA or minor league. No one wants to watch the B players, and we especially don't want to watch them lose.
I think we should have a Manhattan project where we draft 5% of the top athletic talent into soccer. Not even flame. Giving a handful of elite athletic prospects a government stipend would only cost a few million a year and by 2030 we'd have a competitive world cup team. |
|
Date: July 15th, 2026 2:05 PM Author: Darnell i disagree about athletic talent going to other sports because the other major sports in the US cater to vastly different body types. there's no way someone who is 5'9 and 150 pounds is making it in the nba or nfl. even if they bulk up to 170 and trade muscle and power for endurance while maintaining athleticism, there just isn't a place for them in the top american sports. and that size is the prototypical soccer player. sure there are plenty of 6' to 6'4 soccer players too but every top team is full of the shorter guys with a goalie, center backs and strikers being the exception.
i agree with the manhattan project but its goal should be to subsidize soccer training from a young age and get tons more kids playing. soccer is still primarily a middle class sport in the us that quickly costs a lot of money by the time kids are 10+. we need more hungry kids from the ghetto/barrio playing and get chances to KEEP playing through age 18. |

Date: July 15th, 2026 2:07 PM Author: dupa Personally, I've always loved soccer. It's the perfect mix of athleticism, skill, individual and team glory. But i also understand why people might not enjoy soccer.
But every sports fan understands the drama and excitement for high stakes peak sporting events. That's why we watch a thousand events no one cares about for the olympics every couple years. That's people who don't care at all about football will watch the superbowl. |
