I think this can be interesting, too, but...most of the time those moments are few and far between. If I had to pinpoint one reason why soccer is so boring, I think it's because the field is just...massive. It's as big as a football field but without any of the rules that make football interesting to watch. Football feels much more intimate because of how yard gains/losses factor into field position, so a 10 yard gain feels huge and nets a first down.

In soccer it's just...~80 yards of neutral territory with only a scant few spaces on the entire field that actually feel like high-tension zones. A game with a huge field like soccer or football cannot use the entire field at all times and still be interesting.

Just my opinion, obviously, but the action has to have some way of progressing without just being a shoving/kicking match in the middle for 90% of the runtime. Soccer feels boring because it looks boring. I'm sure the players are running their hardest and doing insane stuff with ball handling and positioning and whatnot, but to the average viewer it really does just look like a bunch of small dots on a huge field chasing a ball back and forth for 90 minutes straight. With way too many penalties.

even if we find it boring, americans are natural athletes and there's a lot of us

I don't actually watch soccer is this a thing or is it satire

God, what a disaster of a sport. People make fun of baseball for being boring, but imagine watching an entire 90 minute game of dudes straight up running back and forth kicking a ball without ever scoring a single point.

Oh then you'll love this. They have a new rule this world cup where everytime play stops that length of time gets tacked on to the end of the half. With all the flops, legit penalties, and what not they can end up adding an extra 5-8 minutes.
