No matter how hard I try, I can’t make myself like this sport. And I watch a lot of sports. I’d rather watch curling than soccer.

I admire the rest of the world’s passion for soccer, but I just don’t get what they love so much about it. I’m sure they feel the same way about football (not futbol).

Maybe it’s because I had bad experiences when I played soccer as a child (I could only stand to play for 2 years). I don’t know what it is. I just don’t like soccer.

I’ve tried multiple times to like soccer, but it never works out. I’ll watch the USA play soccer in the Olympics, but once that’s over I move on and forget my brief tryst with the sport.

I don’t know why I felt compelled to write about this. Just thought the world should know where I stand.
