1. yeah, soccer leads to paralysis a lot less often.

2. Most Americans don't have the brains for football, if the end result was 45 to 73, then maybe, they like things going round in circles and back and forth

3. Football is football, stop calling it "suck her".
   Americans need to name their game more like Eggball or sth like that, becouse all countries around
   the world calls football, cuz you play it with foots.

4. And rugby union is even harder

5. Coz its football, dumbass. How do you suppose to watch something called "sucker"?

6. Advertisers don't like it because of the lack of stoppages!

7. Its because there are no commercials during the sport. Additionally its a sport that isn't based around consumption.

8. American sports would be more popular around the world if there was not so many timeouts. In America, sports works around advertisers, where as in the rest of Europe, advertisers work around the sports.

9. But football ("soccer") is a much better sport. Everybody plays football and you have to be amongst the best ones, run like a horse and a sprinter, play with your feet, be incredibly skillful, and be a freaking genius. In other sports there are very limited possibilities, you pass the ball, or shoot, but in football, you can do almost anything.
   Imagine that you play American football, but the play doesn't stop every 3 seconds but goes and goes, you pass, dribble, there are tactics in every moment, and you play with your feet so the opponent can get the ball from you relatively easily.

10. The physical demand in soccer is high but not nearly as high as in other sports.
    Male tennis players can be on court for well in excess of 3 hours and tournament play requires matches every 48 hours. Track and field athletes, especially track face extraordinary physical demands.
    Rugby players are engaged in near continuous action for 80 minutes and batter each other throughout.
    Soccer isn't more popular on American TV because it isn't part of American culture in the way that football, baseball and basketball are. It's as simple as that.

11. Agreed with rhe adverts in USA are terrible.. its awful. The other sport is Rugby… constant movement very little, especially Rugby League.. And tougher than any american foitbal nonce😂

12. Wait till Joe hears about Aussie rules Australian Football AFL those players have more stamina than soccer players playing in a field that’s 5 times the size of a normal soccer pitch combined with hard hits

13. Americans don't like things they arent good at

14. it's not popular because Americans hate flopping which is an integral part of soccer. we grew up watching athletes fight for every yard and when you watch soccer and see falling over and faking injury as a tactic they are immediately turned off.

15. Because Americans could not call the MLS winner "World Champs" like they do in their other sports…

16. It sucks ass that's why

17. The most expensive sport ticket in America today, is an Inter Miami game.

    So, there is that.

18. The continuous nature of it is what's beautiful. The fact that means they can't cram more ad breaks into it is just the icing on the cake. As much as I love basketball, watching the NBA is nauseating. A few minutes of genuinely exciting play at a time, only to then be bombarded by cheerleaders, dumb adverts and replays "brought to you" by various brands.

    I can't. It's too much.

19. Why isn't the NFL popular outside North America?

20. Americans also need sports fat people can play

21. That's why its called "capitalist amarica"

22. Unless your a fan it’s pretty boring

23. So soccer players have unbelievable legs, go figure.

24. Maybe the fact that you call it soccer and the rest of the world call it football has something to do with it

25. Calling sports fat guys on steroids with crashing helmets is an insult to all true athletes

26. Why Isn't handball popular in USA.? Fast play. Lots of goals. And it's a contact sport. Thought you guys loved that..

27. You know, you left the British Isles, took the language, and have consistently butchered it, ever since..I don't know why we bothered with you..should of left you, to the French..that would have pissed you off ..🤓

28. For the last time….
    AMERICANS PLAY A WONKY-THINGY GAME..YOU DON'T PLAY WITH A BALL..BALLS ARE ROUND…YOU DON'T KICK YOUR BALL, APART FROM, OCCASIONALLY..YOU THROW YOUR THING, SO IT'S A THROWY THINGY GAME..NEARER RUGBY..NO-WHERE NEAR FOOT….BALL!!!
    DO YOU UNDERSTAND..FINALLY.. probably not.

29. Its not because football is boring, that its not popular in USA. Baseball is really boring. It is just randomness. There are no logical explanations.

30. I think this is one of the main reasons why football/soccer is one of those sports where you'll often see crying at the end of a game, especially if it was pivotal. The sport is so physically taxing, the body is left with NOTHING but emotions. Winners cry too but the losers…damn. If you know a player who played a full 90 minute final and lost, please give them a hug.

31. There aren’t any breaks no commercials for businessmen to throw money at

32. As a Brit, Joe is right, football players (a game played with your feet!) have to be extremely fit. A football pitch is LARGE (110yards long and 70 yards wide) and they are on the run for 45mins before a break at half time. Just sos you know, the American "World Series" is ONLY played in America-so it is not world wide. Football IS World Wide, and loved by millions and millions. Just take a look at the stadium sizes. If America doesn't want proper football and still wants all the ads, then good luck. Me I love Football (just not the American type, with ads as part of the game.)

33. I've been thinking about this. F-1 also isn't popular in america. neither is reading novels. Football is popular. Football is a team sport that doesn't require much brains. It might have a high physical demand but the training doesn't take long. you're doing high intensity stuff and trying to add weight for a few seconds of performance. You can be a party guy idiot and be good at it. Soccer the elite players are more loners and introverted. That takes a crazy amount of skill and they had to have spent a whole life time with that ball, and they had to have been in their heads constantly thinking about tactics. The same with F-1. That's a highly technical sport. The team is all engineers. That's people who have to study a lot alone. Ayrten Senna, you could tell is an introverted guy constantly training and studying. you're talking about shaving fractions of a second off of a lap. That takes intense observation and study. Slamming headfirst into someone doesn't take brains. That doesn't require high sense. You just close your eyes and go.
