Because 1 win gives you 4 years of bragging rights. What other sport gives you 4 years of bragging rights?

Because the FIFA world cup is the biggest, best football(soccer) event, and because soccer is the most popular sport in the world. This doesn't apply for Americans, but Americans have their excuse since they already have three of their own big leagues (National Football League, Major League Baseball, and NBA).
Another thing, as far as the rating is concerned, the FIFA world cup is the biggest gold pot ever, once in every 4 years. So financially it is a very big deal.

Because it is bigger than American Football, baseball, basketball, or any other sport out there. Soccer is the most popular sport around the world. Kids play it in the streets in dozens of countries every day. And because it is a world championship, it brings together various nations, where their best players face off against the best of the other nations. If your country's selection wins, then your country wins the World Cup!

Because 'football' soccer is a big sport in Europe, like American football is to Americans and Hockey is to Canadians. Its their sport there, so they make a big deal about it

If you don't then no answer will satisfy you! It is simply the best competition of the best game played at the highest level. If you do not see the beauty of the game, live the atmosphere, and see the clash of cultures, then What can I tell you?

because of the fact soccer is the #one million game right here in the US. super Bowl is for the championship for the NFL, the expert soccer league right here. some human beings purely music in for the entertainment (staring on the commercials, staring on the 0.5-time teach.)
