Handball is actually cool tbh
Look France NT highlights with Jackson Richardson
Why isn't handball the world sport? It's cheap to play, it's more exciting than soccer and way more high scoring. It's like what would happen if soccer and basketball had a love child.

Handball > baseball and Handegg.
And you kinda need to be fat to play handball so I understand why it is appealing to baseball fans.
very underrated sport, tbh..shame it's remained mostly a European one (basically every East European/Scandinavian team is either a contender or decent team)..they need to get rid of "charge" rule, but even then it is still less pussified than soccer or Basketball..
And you also have countries like Qatar who "hire" their entire rostervery underrated sport, tbh..shame it's remained mostly a European one (basically every East European/Scandinavian team is either a contender or decent team
I'm not really a baseball fan (I am but not a diehard), so try again.
most sports at the olympics are better than poorball tbh
IDK, I'm watching diving. Is that even a sport or is it just a compe ion? There are some sports that are worse than soccer and some I like watching during the Olympics but never at any other time (sprinting, swimming, etc...).
This is where I'll at least give it to soccer because even if the game is gonna end in a tie, often scoreless or 1-1, there's at least the anticipation to keep you on the edge of your seat and paying attention.

Yeah, it's so weird. It's one thing for some countries to have minorities as part of their rosters but then you have Arabic countries who have rosters filled with Westerners and non-Arabic black people.
Bump
Volleyball is the most exciting sport tbqh.
Mens as and women's. They need to have pro leagues on that
"By contrast, Europe has pro-leagues in Greece, Spain, Germany and Russia. While in Italy, volleyball is not only professional but rich and extensively covered on TV and in print. The same goes for Japan and China. In Brazil, volleyball is second only to soccer in popularity and income."
It's monotonous at that level.
Women volleyball is only watchable because of the asses.
Amen. Then the monotony is well worth it.
When will staters understand that the "low scoring" is actually one of the things that makes soccer the most popular sport around the globe.
Folks love the hard work that it takes to score in soccer. They love that the importance of a score isn't diluted. They love going nuts every time their team scores instead of being used to it.
Scoring in soccer is like a good orgasm. You increasingly work for it with anticipation, and when the moment finally comes you see yourself taken away by an explosion of pleasure.
If scoring in soccer was regularly higher it would feel like jacking off every 5 minutes. At some point you would feel numb.
In other words, you grew up liking the game and need reasons to justify to others why you like it. It'd be one thing if there was constant defense, with shot after shot after shot being defended every minute or two. In soccer, it's not completely uncommon to go a quarter of the game without seeing a shot on goal. The whole point of goal sports is to try and score at or in the goal and it can be very rare in futbol.
There are other sports that the rich and poor alike can play with more scoring and excitement but because soccer became popular first and people grew up playing and watching the game, it gets priority. I'm not mad at it if that's what people like. I am, however, glad basketball also is popular globally.
Shut up got.
No son, I'm explaining you why we like it, since it seems like you have a pretty hard time understanding why so many folks can enjoy a "low scroing" game so much.
We don't need to justify , most folks in the World understand the awesomeness of soccer, tbh.
Most people understand what they grow up with and additionally what they can realistically afford to play. You didn't even address my point. I say again, it's not as if soccer has this back and forth display of defense. If it was 0-0 but each team got 25 shots a game off, that's excitement. Again, there have been soccer matches where there wasn't a single shot for a quarter, if not third of the game. Not goals but shots. That sucks badly and is boring.
You don't have justify what you like, there's nothing I can do about it. That said, from where I'm standing soccer sucks. Handball is way more exciting and it's just as cheap and easy to play.
If you want a high scoring futbol match then I suggest you follow Futsal:
Well, then you should be able to infer that the "cheapness" thing isn't the reason why so many folks around the World love the sport. That's just some misconception staters have of the sport 'cause they feel left out. "They like that sport 'cause they don't have the money we have to like our sports"
