I can understand people getting bored with baseball. I personally love it, but I played organized ball through a little bit of college. Games these days last far too long. Regardless, the lack of scoring in soccer is truly awful. Not just because it's boring (and it is extremely boring), but also because of the sheer futility of it. Make a nice run, cross, miss everyone, repeat. Or my personal favorite--run into the middle of the field and have a defender kick the shit out of the ball to no one in particular.
I actually love soccer, but the game needs more scoring.
