How come the countries with the best militaries don't perform well in the World Cup?

[Super_Fly]

USA, China, Russia (although they beat Saudi Arabia, but they're the host country, so they damn well better), China, Israel, they don't do well in the World Cup, even Great Britain. But when it comes to politics, military, financial system, chess, Judu, arts, science, and just overall boss status, they do superb... weird.

Soccer doesn't seem to garner much interest in the US. (American) football and basketball rule, with baseball and hockey a very distant 3rd and 4th. Soccer would be competing with pick up ping pong games at the Y.

that's a personal opinion or a retarded statement....

nowhere on this planet is a soccer league growing so fast with so much investors and with so much money involved….

….even Blackrock investors are lining up....4bil was offered for rights to put the event on TV for only a few years.

The "doesn't seem" part is exactly what's wrong with the US....Americans are so f*cking clueless last few years….

...they have no idea what's going on in this world or even within their own country.

Uneducated, uninformed, fatbellied, arrogant pricks….no wonder the world slowly turns against you.

Canadian males want more action then kicking a ball around a field. We invented baseball. Hocmey and basketball. All of these sports are more sophisticated then kicking a ball. If we are good at sports we go to hockey first. A game with a puck that if you get hit with it you could get killed. You have to wear protective gear so you wont have body parts sheared off with the metal blades or the sticks that could be lethal weapons. Soccer in comparison is boring especially when they roll about in the ground faking an injury. It cost a lot of money to get ice. Zamboni. Rink hockey equipment. Soccer you just need a ball. Poor countries cant afford nothing else.

Ice is kind of free in Canada during the winter though

[harryverderchki]

We play hockey in ice ARENAS winter and summer .. though .... DOH

Fuck off the lot of you. Watching both sports makes me laugh. One is all dressed up in padding and the other is played by a bunch of girls.

Watch a real sport
