          The first choice is too hostile to describe my lack of interest; it implies an active annoyance rather than my passive disregard for the event.

          I voted the middle option under the assumption that my attention could conceivably be drawn toward the World Cup should the stands be set on fire by hooligans or dwarfs were tossed onto the field, causing the match to be shortened.

            Whenever the best of the best get together on the worlds great stages it's always a good time. It's like the Olympics - I don't follow swimming or figure skating or bobsledding or track and field other than every 4 years when the worlds greatest athletes get together and compete on the worlds biggest stage. Same with the World Cup. I'll follow it until it's over, and then I probably won't care for soccer anymore until they play it again 4 years from now.

              it's definately an acquired taste

              give the first game (the one about to start), and the one tomorrow between the US and England a try

              its the atmosphere that hooked me. the crowds chanting and singing and going nuts

                I'm really looking forward to seeing it. If security-wise everything is OK, it should become a great spectacle.

                BTW, my favorite soccer team recently signed an american; Sacha Kljestan. He just missed the USA squad. Anybody knows if he's any good?

                  I hope there won't be that constant vuvuzela-horn sound. Drives me crazy...

                    I thought Real Salt Lake already won. Anyway, who cares.

                      i hate those too, unfortunately i have a feeling we'll hear a lot of it in this game

                        can't do it; I'd be slightly more interested in chick soccer so my imagination could run and I could theorize on which ones were having fun with each other.

                        If they made the title game I think I might be able to watch part of it.

                        For what it's worth I do really admire these guys as they have great endurance and talent....it just bores me.

                        I would watch Soccer over Golf, I think....but there are not many more

                          We are probably the same; I'm not at all annoyed. Just apathetic.

                            It really depends on the style of play...if it's an attacking game it's fantastic to watch but the defensive chess matches can be real snooz-fests.

                            I want the US to win one of these some day.....the nationalist in me wants that bad.

                            I'm fascinated by some of the really crazy history in "football" and the local club history and wild traditions are fascinating.

                            Read How soccer explains the world, Football against the enemy, or all played out and you'll see what I mean.

                              I usually watch some of it. I agree with Red that the spectacle of the crowds are a big part of it. Nothing else like it is sports.
                              I can't run no more
                              With that lawless crowd
                              While the killers in high places
                              Say their prayers out loud
                              But they've summoned, they've summoned up
                              A thundercloud
