Ideas to make soccer more interesting from an American

21-0 not a blowout?

21-0 is as dominating of a performance in the NFL as 3-0 is in soccer...

Difference is you can out perform a team in soccer and lose 3-0. Word to fifa .

This doesnt happen in any other sport except in the nba where free throw shooting/3 pointers/ offensive rebounds have such an impact on the game.

35-14 is more of a blowout than 21-0 as odd as it seems, it's also about how many points you score.

Youre not being serious.

Whatever ESPN feeds is what the masses will like. If MLS was the top story 4 times a week, we'd be conditioned to respect it.



its not rocket science, people are sheep.

Ridiculous suggestions really. Football doesn't need to be "Americanised," they just need to learn the nuances of the game. This whole need to drive up the score for entertainment is a false choice. Divide all NFL scores by 7 and they start to look a whole lot like football scores. TDs are about as common as goals and I'll bet in some leagues (Spain for example) the average goals per game will beat out the average touchdowns per game in the NFL.

Also stop judging the sport on International tournaments and watch league play. These players for the most part aren't as familiar with teammates, coaches, and systems as they are for the league team. Imagine only judging basketball as a sport at the World Championships or the Olympics.
