And your ridicule of our love of soccer suggests that you do not, in fact, "appreciate opinions" - at least not those other than your own.
I have no problem with soccer, to each their own.

But I don't get comparing it to a hockey game with endless hitting, 60 shots on net and constant action.

Isn't soccer just a lot of back and forth at mid-field with an occasional shot on goal

And the diving is an embarrassment to sport.

John Deere on entertainment - The Carrie Underwood concert last night was awesome. We ended up being third row center from the stage

John Deere on Deceased American Soldiers - They have also given up whining.
