Why don't you guys watch football (not handegg) like the rest of the world? In pretty much every other country on Earth, football is the most popular sport. Every country has its own domestic league and its own national team. Then you guys would actually be able to integrate with the rest of the world in terms of sports, instead of isolating yourselves and pretending the rest of the world doesn't exist.

Listen to me very carefully.

The Appeal of the Big 4 American sports, and the reason why every single one of them is literally better than soccer, is that there /is a bunch of different /actual/ stuff going on/, that you can latch onto. Specifically, metrics. Types of scoring events, types of defensive plays. Any one game is an information-dense experience in a way that a soccer game just plain isn't. Corners and shots on goal hardly count; a soccer match, quite the opposite of a Euro's defense of it, is usually a tedious continuum of particles perturbing other particles until one of the particles eventually exits the field of play after 30 minutes or so of this, and then everyone cheers And I know that there is a wrong opinion among some Euros that the perfect soccer match would be a scoreless draw. Disgusting. In baseball, even a pitcher's duel always ends, eventually, and although possible, to my knowledge no scoreless tie has ever taken place in NFL football. (The lowest I can think of are a few games with a 0-2 or 0-3 score). Which leads me to the American Proposition:

"A sport which has a scoreless draw as a common event, has something very seriously wrong with the structure of the sport itself."

i like soccer, i play fifa lots, there are some really stupid fucking things in soccer though like the imaginary stoppage time. It really is arbitrary until the attack (if there is one) at the end fizzles.

also penalty kicks should be taken farther back with defenders waiting along the sides, so players don't dive so much in the box for a free score

So, you are so pleb that you watch sports not because they appeal to you in its core, but because they are the easiest ones to score in.

Let me get this right, are you implying familia that you are, as a nation, proud of liking the equivalent of Call of Duty ( for /v/ ), Avengers (for /tv/), but in sports?

Not hating, but are you fucking serious? KEK
>>
desu american football is really fun, this just happens to be a very boring game.
>>
>>65454056

You've missed the point. It's not about scoring HURR LOTZA POINTS, although this does happen in basketball (which makes it the more boring of the various sports). It's about /having something consequential and demarcating, something actually going on, actually happening, during game play/. Most of the average soccer match is a big Nothing that one has to get through in order to get /any/ gratification (which is not even assured).

Saying that you have the patience to sit through a 0-0 match, or a 0-1 match, say, is not something to brag about, in the sense that you've been duped into watching /pretty much nothing happening/ for 90+ minutes, except for the sometime-punctuation of a goal.

The best sports to watch are those that tantalize you just long enough, and /usually/ have some payoff in a typical game without making you wait through the entire game for it. Football, Baseball and Hockey are all reliably great for this (Basketball obviously not), but even when a baseball game becomes a pitcher's duel, it's an individual battle of wits between pitchers (and the lineups they face), which has much better tension than the random particles steadily kicking le ball around steadily for 30+ minutes until eventually something breaks. And in baseball's case, tie games are not allowed (except when the commissioner screws up and declares an all-star game a tie, which was instantly and correctly hated by all). So? So they made the all-star game actually mean something, count for something. Now there's no more tie games there.
