Didn'tgoto the onion site, but soccer is becoming pretty popular here with the younger generation. i have seen huge soccer complexes in several parts of the country, and they are crowded., what will it take off in this country is make it like hockey, put a few goons on the field who only try to wipe out other players. Get some skimply clad bimbos to cavort on ther side lines, have one or two star players arrested for variousfelonys, and the next thing you know, its a hit! oh dont forget steriods.
