That’s probably why you like it. You understand the intricacies of the sport. Someone uninitiated can’t grasp those. It’s like looking at a work of abstract art by Picasso and thinking, that looks like complete ****. You don’t grasp the subtleties of the piece enough to appreciate the whole of its brilliance.

It's a real cute sport. Especially the way they bounce that ball off they heads. Personally I don't like any sport were you don't use your hands.
Tell you what…When I send my ex-wife her money…you can lick the stamps. -

I admitted that I don't understand Baseball (basic rules are clear).
Now it's up to you to admit that you don't understand soccer.
(that was my statement in short, before you mow down everything in spring ☻) -

Yes, extremely so. British plebs need their bread and circus though. Keeps 'em in line.
There's about as much "strategy" in soccer as there is in a game of ping-pong.
Only to overrun

(cause he did that often to me):
You don't understand soccer.
There's so much strategy and mindgame in it.
Anyhow, I could talk to a tree.
Any news from RT? -

It’s not exactly what I’d call an exciting sport to watch nor is it really even close to the most intelligent sport to play. Football (American football) requires the most intelligence to play. So many different kinds of plays that offenses need to memorize, different routes, blocking schemes, run/pass options, where the pass rush is coming from, who are the spies, if the defense is blitzing, etc.
But yeah, soccer can be a fun watch. Just as long as there are no goddamn draws. Fuck that ****, yo.

Right. So much of soccer seems ad hoc. I’m sure a great deal
Of strategizing goes into which players you put out and where, there are probably lots of tactical schemes employed but at the end of the day, it’s so fast paced and disorganIzed relative to US football. I’d agree with the caveat being I simply don’t know much about soccer.

Wrong.
You don't have a clue, honey.
Noted (for overrunning).
