    Why is the average foreigner hates american sports?
    1. The games have 60 min of actually game time but inexplicably last 4 hours or more (football/baseball)

    2. Besides the elite few that play the games in college and pros (less than 0.01% of US population plays either games) noone can hit or throw a 90 mph fastball or withstand a linebacker hit without wearing body armor.

    3. It is extremely expensive to buy gear to play football or baseball let alone find a public field to play without paying a fortune.

    4. Who wants to play a sport that is only played in the US but crowns both World Champions in football and baseball?

    5. If you ask 1 in every 1000 americans to tell you 10 rules of football from an officiating point of view they won't know. This is why the ref has to explain the call through a microphone to the crowd and many times even with the use of TV replays from 20 angles and slow motion and freezing of the screen they can't get the play right.

    6. It costs a fortune to watch a football or baseball game for a family unless you watch minor leagues where the play is actually better.

      1. There is more action in 1 minute of a baseball or football game than all soccer games that have ever happened.

      2. Yes, football and baseball take extreme and rare skills. Soccer takes none. Anyone can play soccer, while onlyu 0.01% of the population have the skill to play football or baseball. That's because soccer is a game for uncoordinated children and women, and real AMerican sports are for men.

      3. Yet more reasons why our sports are superior. If any other country could afford a wooden bat and a ball, or a plastic helmets and plastic pads, they'd all drop the borefest of soccer and play real sports. Yout think those euros would play soccer if they could afford real sports?

      4. Yeah, and the Super Bowl is ten times bigger than any freaking soccer game. Its not our fault that we are the best in a real man sport, lets see any other country play a real man's game.

      5. Football is a intelligent and comples game for smart people. Soccer is for pansy loser foreigners who like watching field fairries prance around on a grass field like pussies.

      6. True, that's why other countries don't watch our far superior sport, because watching soccer is cheap while watching better sports is expensive. Just like how a steak costs more than McDonalds. More people eat mcdonalds because it cheap to eat, just like more people in foreign countries watch soccer because its cheap to watch while for football you need to be a rich baller.

        Because fureners can only stomach boring ass crap like soccer and formula one racing. The tension and excitement and complexness of American sports makes their heads explode -- it's more than their insipid little brains can handle. It's like giving a Canadian some food with actual taste to it. I saw one try to eat a cherry popsicle one time and he threw it down and screamed in agony from the overpowering flavor.
