TRIGGER ALERT!:I've never liked soccer, so let's get that out front right off.
Partially because I used to be a big baseball guy and soccer leagues back in the day were stealing players from little league and other baseball institutions. That was my perception anyway, right or wrong. I also was bored by the game, and think the best part of the game are the Latino announcers, who call a game in a very exciting way. Otherwise, it seems like a disorganized back and forth while kicking and passing a round ball...every once in awhile, there is a score.
1-0 is often a winning score
This year was eye opening for me in regard to pro flag football. It was fun to watch, with the type of players being fast and able to work both sides of the ball. I played flag football in a county league when I was kid, and I forgot how much fun it was. It is low impact and probably has fewer concussions than soccer since "heading" the ball isn't a thing in flag football. Next year, I will watch the AFFL in the NFL offseason, as I came to the game late this year. Plus, it's not freakin' soccer!:rockon:
