      Thank you!! Also, Manuel Neuer is also my favorite Goalkeeper. It started I thought he looked like Tobey Maguire, but he genuinely played amazingly too.

    I dont at all like traditional sports but the closest thing I have to compare it is fighting game tournaments. Made all my friends from the local scenes, it is so fun to watch story lines between players develop even ones you never heard of and the cheers of crowd’s especially from tekken is so uplifting ! :D

    I promise you, there are most DEFINITELY places and fans in the states for whom American Football is EVERYTHING.
    Particularly in the south/southeast, and ESPECIALLY in Texas- much of their whole way of life revolves around it.

      sorry I think i meant even at a small level, like yeah for sure a big team can meant a lot to people in the NFL, but if a small town had a team outside of the NFL, it wouldn't have the same level as devotion

      ​@@rustagetwo I don't live in Texas but I'm pretty sure the football they care the most about is college-level. As in, the teams that represent the various universities in the state. It's a REALLY big deal, not just the NFL.

    You can get really nerdy about the tactical side of the game when you start to understand and appreciate it. Managers are having these little chess battles through tactical tweaks and substitutions.

    Dropping comment before watching to see if my mind is changed: No and low scoring sports with the incentive to fake or overplay injury is just begging to be played as lamely as possible both within its rules and in the culture, timewasting being a legitimate strategy inspired by both of those makes it hell to watch for anyone who truly wants to win. A sport should be enjoyable no matter how much a team wants to win because it has to scale to the competitive level. Im a big badminton, volleyball and basketball fan for ref.
    Now I watch, glad you guys are doing a sports episode!

    100% the greatest sport.
    The world cup match in 2022 between Argentina and France was the best game I’ve ever seen. In any sport. It was THE perfect sporting event. Never been that happy with a match outcome before in my life. And I’m not even from Argentina.

    American Chelsea fan. Been following the club since I was 6. Chose them because my youth team wore the same color. 20 years on, I still get chills singing along with the crowds in my living room. Got to see Chelsea in person for the 1st time when they were in the US this past summer. My dream is to visit the Bridge for a game. One day

    Football(soccer) which ever you prefer is such a great sport, the champions league is a a very great competition. The world cup is the biggest stage for it and its very intense. The fact that it literally is a game of inches where they can miss by inches makes it so exciting when they shoot the ball. I support FC Barcelona but I dont have a local team here in Hawaii. If Hawaii had a football team I would call them Hawaii Aloha.

    From an American perspective, I think football suffers heavily from the same issues basketball and american football have, and it's vague rules that leave way too much open to interpretation. The noticeable inconsistency of officiating is offputting and makes me question the integrity of the leagues that implement these types of rules. The MLS is awful to watch because the refs don't call anything, alternatively the Premeir League is awful to watch because the refs call everything and the players milk it. And I don't think there exists a sweet spot where I'd be satisfied. I'd argue that of all the sports I mentioned, football is by far the worst at this (NBA arguably just as bad though). I still go to games, but I just outright do not enjoy it as much as basically every other sport. Honestly, it seems like most of the people at games are just there to get drunk and sing funny songs which is a better reason to go than to watch football, frankly. It doesn't really encourage me to go to games though. I've found if you actually intend on watching games, they are more enjoyable with smaller and less belligerent crowds in general.

    As someone who only started following soccer 2 years ago and in that time has seen their team fall to pieces and just the other night get stomped by Messi, yes it the greatest sport. Even watching the tragic downfall of the New England Revolution has been an incredible experience. I just wish I grew up playing.

    Yes it is the greatest sport no debate
    Cricket & Tennis are also amazing sports but it’s Football by far as the greatest sport. It’s tied as my favourite sport with Tennis. There isn’t much better than a PEAK Football match other than maybe a really good thriller 5 set match in Tennis, Argentina vs France in the WC2022 was what got me into Football
    Cricket was once that but supporting the Pakistan Cricket Team is A LOT of inconsistency & ups & downs & it isn’t good for my mental health. I’m an idiot for this cuz I support Spurs in football & that’s similarly inconsistent but even if we lose, I can still be happy cuz we play in a fun way.

    The answer is no, for the same reason it aint Basket- or Volleyball: cant really hurt your opponents. The best sport in the world is either Handball or Jugger. But as for football - St. Pauli best club in the world ! A trip to Hamburg to see a Pauli game can be cheaper than going to a premier league game.
