I don't understand it. A lot of people call it a pansy sport and say it's for weak people who are afraid of getting hurt.

Some day, do yourself a favor and get your hands on the 2 seasons of a show called Sports Night. It's worth watching (I own it and have watched it MANY times).
The reason I bring it up is, one of the main characters (an anchor on a sports show) HATES soccor.
I gather it's because of the low scores.
In one show, while doing the sports show-within-the-show he reports a bunch of 1-0 games, mentions "an offensive slugfest" of 2-1, and suggests they make the nets bigger.
It's funny. It's the number ONE sport in the world, but is not popular in the U.S.
I don't do any sports, so I don't know.

It's boring if you don't understand it.
I find it pretty exciting, but I wish they would call more fouls, to open up the game a bit.
More scoring would help.

If you're talking about people in the US, it's new to us here. Give it time.

I'm pretty thoroughly indifferent to it.
