Why does soccer get such a bad wrap in this country? I use to think it sucked because the media said it did, and then I watched it and it was awesome. Much better than baseball. There is a major conspiracy that has MLB, the NFL, and the NBA working together with major sports media to be as anti-soccer as possible. Who believes it? What can be done?

I've tried to sit down and watch Baseball, Football (Football), Golf, Basketball, etc. All of those are utterly boring. When I sit down to watch a game of Football (Soccer), I sit down and watch the whole thing-I love it. I honestly do not know the reason why it's not big in America. Perhaps, to many of us American's, when given the thought of Soccer carry misconceptions. I don't know. Maybe it is a conspiracy. Ha. good quest.

You need to watch more soccer. Look around you, and you will notice that US soccer is not as good as you think it is. Put the best team of the MLS versus the best team of Brasil, Peru or Argentina and the South Americans will beat the crap out of us. So sit down and wait until we get to better levels of soccer.
