sorry achmed, USA and China don't give a fuck about your shitty sport
after this match, burgers will invent a new sport that nobody else wants to play so they can be best in the world
>>68755776
Well meme'd sir, well meme'd

USA today is undoubtedly the worst paper though, its for elementary school chldren
>>68756559
That american banter...
>>68756714
usa today is a national newspaper and caters to the lowest common denominator in the nation. Of course its a piece of shit paper.
Americans love to shitchat about football, but in what sport are white Americans best in the world?
And keep in mind: boreball is only played in America and Japan.
So?
Man... just imagine the shitposting if usa manages to scrap a win.
>>68756837
don't start the race thing m8
america by its very definition is a nation of immigrants. the mexican thing is a bit concerning tho..
It's a fucking metaphor you dumb fucks. USA Today is calling Messi the Leonardo of soccer because he has mad creativity and is prolific in his work.
>>68756858
I'm not.
But it's mostly whites who chat shit about football, and those same whites shit on American blacks.
So, in what sport are American whites best in the world? That's right. None.
Leonardo Messi is real. He just sells insurance alongside Cliff Paul

Leonardo Messi is a great player but I am pretty sure Christian Ronald is better.

This season's MVP was white
>>68756837
we aren't the best at baseball anyway, japan and the dominican pretty routinely beat us
baseball is to america what soccer is to england: pioneered a sport and made it a national past time, most high profile league in the world where the best players from all nations play, considered a world power in the sport but because few of our best national players are actually elite we rarely win anything internationally
>>68760485
Well sorry i forgot these shitty and useless nations dude, you must be very proud to share boreball with them. Also Netherlands doesn't count

>>68756858
>america by its very definition is a nation of immigrants
Then why are /pol/ yanks so adamant that they're white?
>>68760850
because america is still 60% white even after a century of immigration.
>>68760850
Because the immigrants were overwhelmingly white up until recently. Historically, most immigrants to the US have been British, Irish, German, Italian, Dutch, and Polish.
>>68760807
that's not an excuse though. most if not all of the players are still all stars and the guys that don't play are generally selfish twats that let scott boras fuck their boipucci.

imagine if USA was sending its absolute best soccer teams and Brazil and Argentina et all were sending B teams. I don't mean B team in the way it is flippantly used by people making excuses for their team losing, I mean literal B teams with maybe 1 star player. It would skew the results dramatically.

Probably second to soccer, maybe 3rd to cricket in the number of countries where it's the sport of choice, and we're not even one of them. Though it might be the sport of choice for whites here, since we're not retarded enough to choose to play football or nigball. The money and health is in baseball.

Some guys are too stupid and american to notice: Football is the world sport by default, and the countries that play it speak the same sporting language.
You saying that is not important is like someone saying english as a language is not important, even if it is the most importante language of the world by default.
Football is a world wide machine, the king of sports, and the common competition around the world. You are not looking badass and free, you only are missing the fun playing alone in your room some boring games.
>>68763828
Multiple strawpolls confirmed it.
>>68763796
this post proves how retarded you are by not understanding a simple allegory linking the best football player in the world to one of the most renowned artist in the history of the world.

tl;dr: you are dense.
>>68763942
no one will ever like soccer here. tonight is the death of the sport. people will come to watch Messi play, people will come to wear Barcelona or Argentina shirts, that's it
there is no love for our team, there is no following for our team, there is nothing for our team. The general population cannot name more than 1 player here, and as soon as Argentina blows the fuck out of the US team then it will be "we dont care about the sport" , and it's true, because even our fans are going to the stadium to watch Messi, not our team.
>>68763942
Yawn.
We're the best nation in the world, playing and watching the sports we enjoy the most rather than desperately trying to gain relevancy and attention like the rest of you lots. We don't care if the rest of the world think slurping semen is the best--it's still gay.

these seem like the most sincere "American" posts in the thread.
I believe that the US will start getting more and more involved with Football for 2 reasons.
1.- its a huge money factory your people are missing out
2.- in the last decade and a half the US soccer team has been slowly but steadily getting better and better. In some time your team will be much more competitively fit and once you start pulling in those wins, people will get hooked on it.
>>68765178
>1.- its a huge money factory your people are missing out
Soccer doesn't lend itself well to television advertising. There's a good 45+ minutes of play where you can't cut to an ad break, unless you're really cheeky and fit in one or two quick ones during breaks in play.
>>68764039
>>68764743
I think it would be cool if football was popular in America, but not if your football fans are going to be manchildren, hipsters and weirdos.
If that's the only way for it to be popular there then I wish you just didn't watch it at all to be honest.
>>68765178
our sports are better factories
put together our sports generate about the same revenue in our country alone as soccer does throughout the world

Also the WBC is like 3 games right? Nothing in baseball should be decided by 3 games, there's too much variance. The worst MLB teams win like 35% of their games.
>>68757031
Larry Bird is the greatest.
>>68765178
More important will be the decline of American football among youths. This CTE thing is srs bsns and I know very very few parents willing to let their kids play football anymore. As soon as the would-be wide receivers, running backs, and defensive backs pursue soccer from age 5 instead, the rest of the world is fucked.
>>68765435
it's like 8 games if you win,
last time started with a group stage, top 2 from each of 4 groups moving on to two separate double elimination brackets, top two from each move on to the semifinals where it's single elimination.
anyway, it's fine like that. If it was a best of 5 or 7 series and countries actually sent their best teams, then the US would win every time
>>68765391
That only means you are missing a business that not only has great potential within your country (if fans take on it and they will once you start winning) but has an already stablished market and infrastructure in the rest of the world which facilitates your reach.
You are clearly not a businessman if you think that because you have a big money cow you shouldnt have a slightly smaller one with a greater potential to grow than the one you already have.

>>68765307
No, there is a ton of potential for publicity. You can fit several of those quick ones you've said, also the banners that appear on screen for a few seconds. Then add up the real life banners that are on the sidelines (triple it if they are led banners with animations), billboards within the "dead spaces" of the stadium and the likes.
The you have the publicity money that goes to the teams, the sport clothing, the energy drinks and the publicity that goes in the actual tshirts they wear.
Im sure im missing stuff but fuck it, you get the idea.
>>68766267
Television advertising and money seems to be king in America. If adverts on shirts and around the pitch were enough soccer would be growing over there at a much quicker rate.
>>68766267
my dad has some spic channel package with south american channels, and soccer games on those channels often have ads mid play. they leave the game on in one corner of the screen and have the ad with sound on the other corner.

mmmm that could be true but i believe that the lack of growth is due to a lack of fan base (which is what increases or decreases the value of the advertisment, not solely the medium), not a lack of potential publicity money... with time, US fans will start to grow in numbers and the tides will change.
its a retrofeeding system. More wins = more fans = increase of publicity revenue = more wins = more fans and so on.
And we are not even accounting the revenue from tickets and sporting goods.

Well you're a yank so obviously you'd have a different perspective on global race than I would.
"Latino" and "Hispanic" are not races anyway you dumb fucking blob. Both of them just mean you speak Spanish and there are Spanish people in Spain. If you live in South America then you're either native American (which I have a category for) or European (which I also have a category for, Caucasian), or black (Brazil has quite a few black people), or you're a mixture (and I have multiple mixed-race categories)

I'm not. "Latino" and "Hispanic" are not races. Native American (native to either North or South America) is a race.

"Hispanic" means you are Spanish-speaking, usually applying just to Latin America but also technically applying to Spain too.
