my problem with this sport is...now I know I am going to get burned for this.....is that the guys run back and forth and nobody scores like for 40 minutes! I frankly tune out and get bored

I want to follow this sports, everyone gets excited and our Brit brothers always kick somebody's a***

I want to kick somebody's a*** over soccer, I really do. I will try to give it a chance since I got money riding on this tournament.

Thing is American Football may have more scores, but it just aint fluent like 'Soccer' We play non stop for 45 minutes without a break - that is excitement - not a 2 minute break and adverts after every play!!
