Minor league games are fun to go to every once in a while.

I honestly don't understand how 'soccer' is possibly boring to watch.

I keep trying to gain a point of view so I can see why people might like that shit. I think it's a tradition thing.

You said it AC, its a tradition thing. England has played it for centuries, and when they invaded India ( now split into Pakistan also) the sport spread there, and I think people(like me) love it so much is because its a cultural sport. Its roots go all the way back to our freedom. I can definitely understand how a person from the usa would find it boring though, since there is no passion involved, its more about national pride than anything imo.

I just don't understand how football can possibly be boring.
Unlike futball, it's actually LEGAL to headbut someone, and an entire game doesn't get decided by one penalty...
I hated that about the futball world series

I like soccer. I just can't stand MLS. Soooo boring. Not to mention there's no atmosphere because only 5 people buy tickets.

Well, I can see how.
I love good matches, but if it's Bolton against Sheff Utd then I'd concur about the lack of entertainment.
I don't think football is inherently interesting.

I also think Basketball is very boring outside of the last few minutes of a game.

I don't find it exciting, but I can see why. It's kinda like baseball, lots of sitting around watching and waiting for a flash of excitement. I find watching soccer peaceful and relaxing so I find it awesome, but it's not 'exciting' as a viewer sport imo. Bad comparison really though because soccer > baseball.
Hockey is about the only sport I find exciting to watch, but the good games can be rare at certain times of the season and some teams are very boring to watch (damn trapping defensive systems). Actually, I find bobsledding exciting to, but I'm the only one I know that feels that way.

When you watch, are the commentators Canadian?
I have a theory that how the commentators react, and what they say, directly influences what people think they see, or saw.
(Cf. Andy Gray and Gerrard).
