Default Soccer!

Me, with my strong British roots, love soccer, and I love the English Premier League, as well as basically every other European league. My favorite team is Arsenal.

Does anyone esle here like soccer?

Lightbulb Re: Soccer!

I think it's a pointless sport, not allowing you to use your hands, and then you play for 90 minutes and the final score of the game is 1-0, 2-1, or some other low scoring score. What a waste of time. No offense.

Super Mario Strikers owns. I love that game. Otherwise I'm not a big soccer fan.

Hell yeah I love soccer! Middlesbrough's my team although they blow this year. I like Arsenal a lot too. I debate on whether I should like Man U though because it might be like rooting for the Yankees.

Usually I play MVP, but I've been hooked into FIFA, lately. I like the manager mode a lot. And the music and commentators are SO much better than MVP's.

I played soccer for 11 years(since I was 4).....I had to take this year off cuz I broke both my hands playing baseball over the summer, and even though you don't use your hands, you'd be surprised how much you need them, and once my hands wree fine, even thoyugh I'd be behind the 8-ball(I think thats how the saying goes) I broke my toe, so I just took the whole year off. I don't watch professional soccer, but I'll watch games I'm at...and movies about little kids playing soccer and green goats

Meh. Not a big fan at all. Seems like a "foot fairy" sport.

Manchester United and Glasgow Celtic supporter.

I cannot wait until the World Cup, hopefully the US will play well.

I LOVE Celtic. I love you, cept for the Utd part.

It's a bhoy thing.


(By the way: You've all got it all wrong, Pro Evolution Soccer/World Soccer Winning Eleven is a better game than FIFA )

10 points clear of Hearts, we should take the league this year.

There are few things I love more than seeing Rangers 17 points back.

Yeah. They're going to get raped in the Champions League by Villarreal, too.

Who do you guys think is making it to the FA Cup? I think Arsenal got knocked out, right? And I've read Wigan is putting on a good showing.
