Cricket is more legit and that's awful too.
I am a big Soccer fan, but I get Patrice. If its the PLayoffs, or Copa America or World Cup or some DO OR DIE situation where someone has to be eliminated it's one of the most exciting and unpredictable games ever.
Just watch women's soccer, like the wnba the highest level looks like a high school boys team and if they played against a university men's team they would be trounced.
The best women's teams in the world have lost against U15 boys teams. www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/australian-womens-national-team-lose-70-to-team-of-15yearold-boys-a3257266.html This happens across the board in all sports, hockey, tennis and chess included.
Women's soccer is actually fun as hell to watch. It's like the difference between college football and the NFL (or NCAAM vs NBA). NFL might be more "perfect" but college football has crazier stuff happen, it's less predictable, it's more fun to watch imo. Especially because the USA womens team kicks so much ass haha
The points are relative to the difficulty and situation. In theory, a touchdown is 6 times more difficult than an extra point, 2 times more difficult than a field goal, etc.
Soccer is 90 min of nothing They kick a ball back and forth and furiously run after the ball. And it does not matter which team gets the ball because nothing is going to happen. It is not uncommon for a match to end without a goal. (Nill-Nill) And a goal is so rare the when it happens the sports announcer has to stretch out the announcement of the goal to fill up dead air because nothing else is going to happen for the rest of the match.
you can't love it in general, you have to have a team you grew up rooting for and that team will always give you huge emotions when you see them win, especially live.. makes you cry at any age.
This shit funny as fuck lmao RIP Patrice man.. Every body getting all deep and butthurt about his opinion but dude is funny as hell. Its just his opinion lol
I have to say, I admire Patrice efforts to watch and understand the game. His idea of sports is only about score and winning, while Soccer offers more than that. There are pleasure to watch a winning team scoring lots of goals, pleasure watching team that defends for their life, pleasure of watching team that are able to keep 80% possession under pressure. on the other hand. If you prefer high scoring game, watch futsal.
Joe Josa bro did u invent American football or somethin? I’ve seen u caping for the sport under atleast 6 different comment threads lmao just let ppl have their opinions dam
I think it's just where you're raised. Being British I love football it's passion, it's drama, it's skill and beauty. I love the NFL now but I used to hate the stop start all the while, the fact they blew up every 2 seconds for who knows what, time outs, adverts and fucking flags thrown all over the option. I got used to it though and I think it's a hell of a game now I know it. No matter how hard I try though basketball, baseball and hockey bore me to tears. Love Patrice though, what a guy :D
Basketball is awful. Baseball is slow but it’s highly strategic and a real thinking man’s game. Hockey is fast and brutal and takes perhaps the greatest agility and dexterity of any team sport on the planet. But football is my favorite because of the strategy.
Another reason Patrice did not touch on is all the diving from the players. The acting like they got shot and are rolling on the ground as if they are dying, its pathetic. In NFL, NHL, and even NBA, the games are physical and rough and players get blasted all game long. Tons of hits in NFL, tons of hits in NHL, the players keep playing, they don't act like they got killed.
Soccer is great. It’s my second favourite sport. Its not especially huge here in Australia, but it’s the World game for a reason. That said American football is objectively better but it’s still great.
I agree 100% with the part about how they change who the best player is every year. I don’t watch soccer but I know who Neymar, Ronaldo, and Messi, are just because I heard all three of them named the “best” within a span of a few months.
American's don't care about which sport is the most technical. We care about what is more EXCITING to watch and to us soccer falls way low on the excitement scale.
@@scotthogan1374 THat's because you people have the attention span of goldfish and need commercials to keep you entertained. That can be the only explanation why you like American football but not ''soccer''.
@@ModernInkling The American public need commercials to keep them engaged with their short attention spans. SocCeR also has them but only one break per game, not 50.
I watched thousands of hours of Patrice over the years and love him but he is actually wrong here in most of his facts. Less goals makes every goal way more valuable, that's why the fans go crazy and the commentators as well when someone scores a goal, it takes work and strategy to get one, and to keep the other team from scoring one, it's much more complex than a touchdown. Just hard to get into if you don't know all the subtleties. It's like watching football without knowing about downs, interceptions, what a QB is, or what a punt is. Of course you won't like it. Also women's soccer is a joke, not sure why Patrice would say that.
In fact, Ice Football had the same problem when games were becoming 0-0 over and over. I believe it was widening the nets. Then you get a better way to see who's really better. Otherwise, who cares with grass football (soccer) since the champion is usually just the team that happened to get a single 'penalty kick' or some arbitrary tie-breaker.
Are used to feel how Patrice felt about soccer from the World Cup in 2014. But after playing it with my friends and watching it in the last four or five years, I have to say I like it more than regular football. Lol.
I played soccer when I was in junior high. It was alright to play. The only thing that really sucked was I was the goalie and playing in Upstate NY in the fall it would be freezing and you couldn't do much of anything to keep you warm enough. And the penalty kick is the most unfair thing in sports. But soccer is un-watchable. Watched, I think it was France vs. Italy a couple of cups ago to give it a chance and it was just un-watchable. Essentially they're only going to score when somebody flops and either gets a penalty kick or a corner kick and then they score on a header. I actually liked the movie Goal! They did it right by not trying to force feed the viewer that these guys are amazing athletes and just focused on the cool things of being a pro soccer player in England and the fans and players passion for the sport. I can't tell you how many of my friends claim they like soccer but really don't and are just watching it to come off as sophisticated. Makes me want to vomit.
Nah bro. Unfortunately you started watching football when everyone from the golden era retired or are past their prime and are about to retire. Me and many die hard soccer fans, experience the same snoozefest games you just described. It’s not uncommon for us to just cut the game off. This is due to a shift in tactics from coaches who stifle the abilities of players, forcing them to play very safe, And the influx of self-proclaimed “prodigies” who essentially all play the same. Its losing what made it special, its actually a trending topic. You kinda have to search and wait for select games to have good experiences. Any type of South American or African cup tournaments seems to be alright imo, because they play like it’s their life on the line, which for most of them it is lol.
No one probably cares but the image on the thumbnail is meant to be a San Diego FC game but all the flags and crowd are Wigan Athletic fans from the FA Cup that have been photoshopped in...

Patrice O'Neal must try playing soccer. Rugby to me is like a free for all, rugby feels like anyone who throws their body around more wins. Baseball is fun to play & fun to watch, basketball is more fun to play than it is to watch, golf looks more like a past time, cricket is more fun to watch than it is to play. Everyone loves soccer, even countries that are bad at soccer like soccer.
As a football fan I will attest that no one, absolutely no one I know gives a fuck whether Americans like it or not. The only time the USA is ever a consideration is when we make fun of how trash the MLS is or if our national team is lucky enough to play the USA (if they some how qualified) in group stages because we know it will be an easy win.
Love patrice but in this clip he spoke like a full American. He normally speaks on a man's perspective but not in this one. "they never stop" "why they run so much", spoken like the average obese American. Love you Patrice
"Who cares more people watch it. That's your point? Do you understand that that's your point dude?! Do you understand why you suck, cause that's your point!" 17:06 Haha absolutely true and the way he says it is so fucking funny I can't get enough of it.
@@tomjones8189 your comment is stupid. So your saying a lot of Africans don't play Soccer? You third worlders need to just accept America doesn't like Soccer because we have better, higher scoring sports i.e. real football and basket ball. There is nothing exciting about watching a bunch of nobodies kick a ball around for 4 hours for it to end 0-0.

The points are relative to the difficulty and situation. In theory, a touchdown is 6 times more difficult than an extra point, 2 times more difficult than a field goal, etc.
Ahh this makes sense for basketball too, as an Englishman, this all makes sense now
Billy Nunez so by that theory a safety is only twice as difficult as an extra point...? Seems unreasonable
Joe Marron safety is the only weird one. Maybe it should be 3 or 4 points.
Joe Marron A safety is definitely more than twice as difficult than an extra point BUT you also get the ball back.
Joe Marron you get the ball too, so it’s worth more than 2 points

Patrice O'Neal must try playing soccer. Rugby to me is like a free for all, rugby feels like anyone who throws their body around more wins.
Baseball is fun to play & fun to watch, basketball is more fun to play than it is to watch, golf looks more like a past time, cricket is more fun to watch than it is to play. Everyone loves soccer, even countries that are bad at soccer like soccer.
grew out of football at about 13 im surprised everybody else didnt
actually im not surprised at all
I’m English, grew up with soccer, it is boring to watch, Patrice really hits on something. I watch the NFL now, go Pats! 😒
As a football fan I will attest that no one, absolutely no one I know gives a fuck whether Americans like it or not. The only time the USA is ever a consideration is when we make fun of how trash the MLS is or if our national team is lucky enough to play the USA (if they some how qualified) in group stages because we know it will be an easy win.
9:28 KaKa hahahaha
Love patrice but in this clip he spoke like a full American. He normally speaks on a man's perspective but not in this one. "they never stop" "why they run so much", spoken like the average obese American.
Love you Patrice
"Who cares more people watch it. That's your point? Do you understand that that's your point dude?! Do you understand why you suck, cause that's your point!"
17:06 Haha absolutely true and the way he says it is so fucking funny I can't get enough of it.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 from a soccer fan.
If you could win the world cup without winning, england would have won it every single time
I would have liked to have heard what Patrice thought about Caitlin Clark 😢
You can't win the world Cup without winning games
@Handsome Jack So your mum
And then Messi and Cristiano went on to be the top two players for ten years in a row
And nobody will ever care in America.
Scott Hogan i owe you a beer. God bless America.
@@scotthogan1374 right, americans only watch things full of African Americans
@@tomjones8189 your comment is stupid. So your saying a lot of Africans don't play Soccer? You third worlders need to just accept America doesn't like Soccer because we have better, higher scoring sports i.e. real football and basket ball. There is nothing exciting about watching a bunch of nobodies kick a ball around for 4 hours for it to end 0-0.
@@scotthogan1374 cope
Patrice truly LIVED to piss people off
Ronaldo, Messi and Ronaldihno basically won a season MVP in consecutive years. I don't know why he couldn't understand that :D
The WNBA Sacramento churchs chicken Los Angeles bail bondz😅😂
Someone should have told Patrice that football originally got its name because the ball was a foot in length.
Should've been called pigskin ball or sumptin!
Great fuckin rant.
Imagine if Lebron liked soccer not basketball
Technically a touchdown is 6 points cause you need less achievements for lesser points (field goals , safeties)
The women are tougher than the men. That’s all the soccer knowledge you need to hate the sport.
pro womens teams get smashed by high school boys.
In what plane of existence is that statement true?
