Wow, i was asking myself the same thing XD
I got quite a few friends from america and the all dislike football (soccer) and say that they find it boring... Can't understand, really.
Cool that there are people in the states who like it, though
I'm English and I still find football (soccer) boring I only watch it if there is an event such as the world cup because our country's honour is at stake. Although after drawing to America we have no honour left.
