The reason soccer is the world's most popular sport is because poor countries play it due to the fact that you can play it with palm tree goal posts and a coconut ball

The only reason it's popular is because poor nations can play it, not because of any merit whatsoever

honestly i think this could be the result of a generational gap. this is most assuredly not the case anymore.

and uh, most good athletes generally play more than one sport in high school anyway. so i'm not sure what you're getting at. i had really good basketball players, runners, baseball players, and an all state high jumper on my soccer team.

athletes who aren't good enough at football may play soccer instead. (for example)

this is stupid.

well yeah, which is why this thread says "America" in the title. Also most other countries don't play American Football.

Can you imagine how good the US would be at soccer if we had our best athletes playing it?

on a nationwide level, the best athletes probably are playing basketball. not football.

but it is certainly not the case everywhere that the good athletes play football and the bad ones play soccer. you have such a narrow minded view of the world. it almost makes me sad for you.

yeah but it's always the same in this kind of stuff. I mean the original article is so outrageously stupid there's nothing you can really say about it beyond, "Goodness, what a huge pile of arse-gravy."
