Football/soccer just isn’t designed to pique the interest of general American culture.
It’s a constant but slower pace of play (consistent action but limited intense bursts) from less “super human” people (elite athletes but closer to average size) predominantly running around*
Honestly I don’t know why football isn’t as big as it should be in the US. Your national team isn’t even bad. How can you guys prefer basketball and baseball to this? Shout out to the Americans who love football, you’re real ones
