        What a waste to be so dismissive of things outside your comfort zone. Can't imagine not having soccer or rugby or aussie rules to watch if I hadn't put in effort to learn sports "foreign" to me. Took heck of lot longer than 1 game, but open mind and curiosity sure helped.

        It takes a desire to care about them though. There's nothing wrong with not enjoying sports that aren't exciting to you. watched plenty of soccer, been to plenty of baseball games and basketball games, I have a basic understanding of those games, I just find them utterly boring

        Nothing wrong with not liking something. Plenty of things I don’t like that my peer group find amazing. That is cool. rub here is sheer dismissiveness of it and use of newspaper column inches to broadcast it. Disliking something is fine. Just be constructive as to why

        Literally have seen columns similar in tone or topic throughout World Cup. A fresh angle@from the anti soccer crowd would be nice especially in such an forum as the Globe. That was my only point. Don’t expect everyone to love the game at first sight like I did

        I would have read the entire article, but found it lacked pace and excitement, and drifted off halfway through, to make sure I spelled drivel correctly in my comment. #drivel

        Strangely enough, I bet not a whole lot of people became baseball Ganda after one game either. Or Basketball fans, or football fans, or hockey fans. Stupid idea for an article. Next time, just hire somebody who actually knows the game to report on it.

        Nice Apple! How do you get Ganda out of fans? Excellent spellchecking work!

        Hey, look a dinosaur - such antiquated, ethnocentric, tired-ass takes. The death of the American soccer troll is almost complete. Sloppy articles like this are appearing less and less frequently - #goodriddance
