I guess it is how you are raised. Football is a way of life around here. After spending most of last year in Canada I began to feel that way about Hockey. Soccer is mostly a kids game here and I can't sit through one even if my own kids are playing.

Football is so dynamic that you have to understand the teams and the individual players to really enjoy it. Maybe it's also because most of up grew up playing football. I have never played soccer so I really don't even understand it.

Some parts of the country(US) are more basketball oriented. I think it's neat game but I don't watch very much of it.

And of course there's the pride factor coming from a State that has a rich football heritage. ie Oklahoma, Alabama, Nebraska, etc.
