I said this:
"OTOH, soccer attendance has dwindled to near zero over the thirty years it has been organized in this country and TV coverage has all but disappeared. The only fans who go to professional soccer games are youth teams and coaches who force their chubby charges to use their free tickets. "

You said this:
"Soccer is the most popular spectator sport in the world, by far. It is growing in popularity very quickly, particularly in Asia.
Kids love to watch soccer. I'm taking a group from the YMCA to a Rapid's game this weekend."

THANKS FOR MAKING MY POINT.

Soccer is for sissies. You want real sport try one where the only balls needed clank when you walk. You get it done in 8 seconds and starts when you nod your head.
