There goes the white trash calling himself 'gthing' with his fantasies about being plugged in with the mud races. What a joke this guy is.

America's national felons vs the world.  

The 2.2 billion is for the entire tournament you goddamned moron.  The final was watched by 715 million according to FIFA.

That is still a lot more than the Super Bowl.  However:

Soccer - played by every country of the world, biggest event watched by 10% of the world.
Football - played by one country (CFL doesn't count), biggest event watched by 2% of the world.

Or if you prefer:

Soccer - played in 100% of the world, watched by 10%
Football - played in 4% of the world, watched by 2%.

Dont call it soccer, only fat americans call it that, its been called Football by the people who invented the English language for longer than you have had electricity.

I'll call it whatever I want.  In the USA we call it soccer, I don't know why this bothers soccer fans in other countries so much.  Other countries call basketball all sorts of fucked up names and you don't hear us bloo-bloo'ing about it.

I was in Seoul when they hosted the World Cup.  All throughout the city, the big screens they used for advertising were showing matches.  The streets were filled with people everywhere just watching games with no sound.  it was pretty cool.

Since when?Ive never heard any other country call it any different, since you know, that was what it was first named and it took that name to keep.

The Super Bowl is played by the number one country in the world with the highest standard of living. Drive through NJ where I live and see the huge houses with swimming pools and brand new cars in the driveways. Yes, our country shuts down for the Super Bowl. Take an NFL team and see the combined salary for the players. Now compare the entire team salary for a soccer team. Don't tell me about one player but the team.

People are trying to come to our shores from every country. The only people that wants to come to Europe countries to live are Arabs.

According to wikipedia, the term "soccer" originated in England in the 1800s.

Unfortunately, this post will be ignored by "soccer fans".

WTF is wrong with you!  How in the hell slightly less than 1/3 of the world's population would watch one football game at the same time?   ::)

Dumbass guy! Now, carry on with your Ronnie vs Yates threads.

This just means that 2 billion, 111 million people should have found something better to do with their time instead.

yeah handegg is the dumbest sport ever, just a bastardized version of rugby played by a bunch of fat white idiots and unskilled black idiots.

the only good thing about the superbowl is the ads, which is pretty fucking sad.
