NavyDave Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 So does this means its an upgrade from being as exciting as watching grass grow to going up a level to watching paint dry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnydertheHun Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 Let's not start comparing soccer to football. I am a huge football fan, but soccer is more exciting to play and to watch. Especially when you consider the TV timeouts. I watch the two together sometimes on different channels and I am always shocked at the dead time in an average football game. BTW - Adu is a significant athlete. His money at his age will send ripples throughout the American sports scene. Let's see, I can play football and start making money if I'm not hurt after my Junior year. Or, I can play Baseball or Basketball and start earning after highschool. Or I can play soccer and start earning big money at 14 (in Europe they start signing them at 12). This could have a profound impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancalagon the Black Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 SnydertheHun, don't open that Pandora's Box. When the soccer World Cup was on last year (during the offseason, no less), the debate was fast and furious. Suffice it to say that NavyDave has achieved his impressive post total partly by declaring how much he doesn't care about soccer. Often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SkinsHokie Fan Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 This is gonna be great. I have had DC United season tix since they started MLS and even in the "glory days" of the mid 90s nobody this spectaculor has ever played for or against United. I am psyched. This kid has it all. Speed, strong, moves and whatever. Just wait till he actually grows up and develops. He aint the Lebron of soccer, he is gonna be the Jordan of soccer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
