Nope. Back in the days of Agassi, I was kinda interested, but now... no thanks. Id rather watch a real sport. Give me Football, Basketball, Baseball, European Football, Hockey.... in that order.

Dude. Soccer rules anything Tennis has ever done. Soccer is just the most watched, followed, loved sport in the WORLD! Dont be a hater. Watch a good match and you will see.

If any of you watched the European Championships, you could have seen some of the best soccer in a while. My boy Fernando Torres was a beast. One of the reasons im a Liverpool fan. Him and Steven Gerrard.

Watch a good match and you will see. ya the world but you are talking to Americans here man...definetly not top in America. American soccer is weak and we know it. Its kind of hard to get into something that is half way across the world. I would say Tennis has more spectators from america then soccer does. Im a basketball, baseball, football fan but I def think tennis is a good sport. And at least we of had some people to root for. I dont think I could name a good American soccer player. Landon Donavan? would barely make the Brazillian team.

I got to admit that was a good game in the euro cup but its honesetly tough when there are no americans good enough. At least hard for me to take pride in a sport where we suck at. Maybe if we had a team like Brazil I might follow more closely.

Ok here is the tester. An old fat man at the country club can play tennis. The same cant be said for soccer. Casual Sport/Real Sport. : )
And there are americans who actually play for a number of European Clubs.... they are just good enough not to play in the shitty MLS. European Football might be half a world away but there is this new invention called TV and Sattelite that makes it possible to watch the games as if you lived there. Novel concept. lol

there is a senior, professional, tennis league. there is not a senior professional soccer league. Girls can beat guys in Tennis. Girls cannot beat men in Soccer.(on a professional level) That should tell you about the sport.

why is it you guys hate soccer? because the television reporters tell you too? if you really understood the game (clearly isnt the case) then it'd be easier to see how incredible of an athlete you have to be to play soccer at a high level.
how many of you guys can even kick a soccer ball? my bet is most of you cant and therefore none of you can really justifiably bash soccer
