You know, I have no care for a sports. But this year I was able to get a few glimpses of Soccer, or Futball, don't know the difference, but the crowds were going absolutely wild. I began to watch a few games on YouTube, and was thinking what a passion they have for the game. I wish I was as passionate about something. It just totally amazed.me. I guess I just like passion, do you like it?

I get really passionate when I watch American football, and baseball, but I've never got so passionate I would hit an opposing fan, or rush a field, or scream obscenities. I just tend to yell out in excitement. The soccer fans act like they would cut you to win a game. It would be cool to feel that way about making like a scientific discovery. I imagine the person who cured polio got that excited.

You know it. I remember as a child all the kids in wheelchairs due to polio. It was a terrible thing.

I agree, the soccer fans are very devoted. Never been a fan personally. A huge game here in Nashville over the weekend. People went wild.

Exactly. Wild is the word for it. I was nearly knocked off of my feet. Amazing.

@popciclecold As long as they enjoy it, I guess that is what matters. I will opt out and stay home.

Football and soccer are the same thing "European football". I do not like sports.

I don't either. But when I saw the passion, it made me take a second look. They lost it.

@popciclecold My brother and father liked European football. My husband has never been interested.

Some people are too passionate about their chosen sport. And some, like me, don't care about any sports at all. I am passionate about some things but not to the point where I'll made enemies over something.

I like watching the Cleveland Browns; but I can't say I'm passionate about it. Enjoy your day.

Hmm... I'm not much into sports, and certainly not team sports. There's too many things going on and I can't keep track of things... I'm better able to follow those sports that only have a couple of players. Haha.

I don't enjoy sports. Passion is good if you don't go to far

I'm not a sports fan. I did watch a soccer game on tv once, but I wouldn't handle the noise the fans made. I do like figure skating and gymnastics.

As you say, some people really go a bit berserk following their particular team. I'm not that passionate.

I’m not interested in spors. The only time I’ve watched sports was when the boys were in high school and college band.
