Soccer
Let's get something straight right off the bat. Soccer is
named Football everywhere except the USA and Canada. Aptly name sport.Yet it
was the English that coined the name Soccer before us Yanks and Canucks exploited
that name. Blimey.
Soccer should just be universally renamed Good Cardio
Workout Half Assed Rugby or GCWHAR. Rugby should be renamed Clueless Padless Almost
American Football. And the NFL should call itself Big Business' Sometimes Free
High Speed Collisions With Pads. Truth hurts. Especially when it interferes
with slick,mass media marketing strategy.
The passion a soccer fan has for their FC can reach lethal
heights. That's DEATH to you and me. Or wild rioting by soccer fans that causes
many minor injuries. In the USA,only Kenny Chesney concerts are as equally as
lame and dangerous as a normal worldly soccer match. Best to wear a cup and a
NASCAR rated fire suit to your next soccer match or Chesney gig.
Soccer is popular because nervous mom's can feel secure
knowing the worst soccer injury pales in comparison to a gruesome football
injury. In impoverished,under educated countries,soccer is the main diversion
for most kids growing up. All that a group of those kids need is a properly
inflated ball and enough space to run to start a fun soccer game. In the
USA,most kids just need a pocket on their pants to store their IPhone while
their hands are busy looking for a credit card (moms) to buy a $5 coffee at
Starbucks.Then catch a ride in dad's BMW SUV to the beautifully manicured PAL
field for a soccer league game. Everybody has their own idea of fun. I have
mine. You have yours. Glass The Tramp has his Fun Fun. Cool tune. Check it out:
Copa America is being held for the first time in USA. On the
Copa's Benji anniversary mark.ZZzZZzzzzz. Sticking with the cheap acronym
angle,CA should be renamed America Soccer Series or ASS for short. Then maybe
people besides the rowdy South American natives living in NJ would clog up
Route 3 near Met Life Stadium during the Peru/Colombia battle for something
other than drug export supremacy while playing on plastic grass. The camel
races held the night after at the Meadowlands Racetrack near Met Life Stadium
were probably more entertaining than the 0-0 snoozefest that Peru/Colombia put
on.
I still give former baseballer Bake McBride the Best Ever
Afro in Sports award. He just nips former soccerer Carlos Valderama for the
honor. Good work men.
I played soccer from 3rd grade to 7th grade. Then I started
playing football. I can honestly say that I'm glad I waited until I was 13 to
take football related hits. My brain is still fully intact. No CTE that I know
of. Thanks soccer [sic].
Forever your red card
