I understand football. It's exciting to me. Soccer really isn't. Especially since no one ever scores anything. It's nice when there's enough offense in a 1-0 game that there are lots of chances to score, but if there's no offense, it can't be exciting. It's not like baseball, where a shutout indicates a spectacular pitching performance. DEVILRAYS Rad Stadium<

I prefer football (american) because it does involve alot of running by the offense and defense but there is a much more physical side top football, soccer is just endurance... Football requires, strength as well as endurance. MTFBWY ~Commander Corran Horn<

Football. Soccer is like hockey without sticks, fighting, which makes hockey fun "You guys really f*cked up. I'm going to have to lay a lot of you off." <I>Steve Jobs</I>I am <i></i>

Darn it stop saying soccer #blows a gasket# I prefer the football where predominately you use your feet to kick a ball Why do I prefer football to american football?<
>Well its much more flowing and better paced. I watched an american football match and it lasted like 3 and a bit hours for what was a game with 60 minutes supposed to be played. <
>Football is much more engrossing you get drawn into the game and something coul;d happen at any second and goals when they come mean something.<
>Don't get me wrong I still like american football but for that type of game I prefer rugby, as thats full of action and mayhem D"> Want to read news thats actually entertaining-Go here<

SOCCER! Soccer ("football" ;P) by far! I love soccer, always have, i grew up with it. Although I DO like football(American) too. I never miss the superbowl. <

>Most people @ first glance say Soccer isnt a skilled sport, its easy to play, not exciting, slow paced, and the athletes just have to be good at running (endurance), etc...not true. I've played both sports before, and soccer is much much more difficult to play. Its way more tiring than any other sport that ive played (ive played basketball, baseball, football, etc...) and it takes pure strength to play. You HAVE to be in perfect shape to play...hence you "never" see an overweight player in Soccer like you do in most other sports. But, it takes more than strength, it takes coordination (tons of it), endurance (most people would pass out before they could even finish a full game) , good timing, ability to read people, etc...the list goes on. I love it, if you are a true Soccer fan, TRUST me, its exciting. You're on the edge of your seat 90% of the time when you watch matches. Thats my take on the subject <i></i>

I don't really prefer either, but I find American Football very boring. I think the game takes forever and there's a lot of ego in American football. If I watch any A. football at all it's college, and that's rare. <

>Soccer (football) is a constant motion sport, kinda like hockey in a way. It holds my attention better because there's always something to watch.<

>I guess another reason could be is that every 5 years my birthday falls on Superbowl Sunday.......... <i></i>
