    When I was a kid we went to Cardinals baseball games often. Like you said it was a lot cheaper then. Plus the team gave away "Straight A" tickets so between my sister and I we got those as well. She wasn't much into it; it was my mom's and my thing. We took the kids when they were little a couple of times. The only other professional sports thing I've attended as an adult was a couple of Blues hockey games. Booooring.
    My uncles and cousins got me into baseball in a big way. My dad only followed boxing with any enthusiasm.
    But when I could literally walk to the ballpark anytime that I wanted, it wasn't too hard to see plenty of games.
    As I said, tickets were a dollar from when I was a little kid right through college. I could find that under the sofa cushions.

    So you should understand the concept of team pride and representation.... Even if it was just a neighborhood team... Yes...I've coached multiple sports...middle school, high school, rec/summer, and special needs teams....

    Not like LeBrons version of team pride, where no matter what LeBron always comes first.
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

    Soccer is always fast paced, albeit low scoring at times. With youth soccer leagues growing across America for the last 20 years, there is a lot more interest. It was slow going at first.

    I rarely watch sports anymore until the end of the season when the games are important. I don't have the time. I'll record football once in a while, and fast forward past the slow parts.

    For the most part, I watch MMA.
    I find Soccer Football Hooligans more entertaining than the match.

    If she's your whore, it's who gets the first ball in her goalpost.

    The nice thing about those particular goalposts is that you can come in from almost any direction and still score.

    Not unlike hockey, where many just watch for the fights.

    It doesn't require much hand-eye coordination, though.

    And watching it is more boring than watching paint dry.

    I understand that most of the world loves the game. That's obvious.
    I'll never understand why.

    Soccer-rules football is just one version of the ultimately generic team sport.

    Like American football, rugby, basketball, hockey, lacrosse, polo, and who knows how many other games,
    soccer is about going back and forth,
    attacking and defending goals,
    all under a running clock.

    If you've seen one of these games, you've seen them all.

    Baseball and softball, the latter variations being baseball tweaked for the people playing it,
    are cerebral games.

    I can sit through four and a half hours of Yankees-Red Sox baseball
    and ride on every pitch.

    I'm not a member of the video game generation; I have an attention span.
    But both games exist, so to each his/her own.
    Exciting finish to U.S womens' softball today.
