Americans love combat sports and they have draws hockey gives points for ties. Of the big four team sports in America half give points for ties

He literally gets it completely backwards - American sports team "riots" are nothing compared to soccer hooliganism where even in Europe people will get stabbed.

If Bill Buckner had been a South American football player he would have gotten a Columbian necktie the next day.

But forget about all that - Philly fans threw snowballs at Santa once in the 1960's.

Exactly, Eagles fans throwing snowballs at drunk Santa Claus back in the 60s is nowhere near the violence and destruction committed by soccer fans. Interesting he’s silent on any destruction done when an NBA team wins the finals, I wonder why?

Does it apply to court outcomes?

How come he didn't say "thank gods"?

Americans hate soccer because we're not the center of the sport, Europe is. If you're a Japanese slugging powerhouse, a 7'2 African rebound machine, or a Swedish forechecking teenager: you come to North America and when your team plays the team near me, I can watch you. But the MLS is a joke, the top soccer players come here when they're 38 and looking for one last payday. Eh I can't keep up with Barcelona and Real Madrid anymore, but I can score a few on the Vancouver Whitecaps.
