@GreenReuben Rugby fans don't cry when their team wins or loses? Really?
I think the differences between rugby fans and soccer fans come down more to how mainstream it is, and in which countries. Rugby has a comparatively small following compared to football, and football has enormous amounts of money poored into it.
You say that the best players in the world miss "easy shots" - that shows how jaded or clueless you are. If you watch the best players in the world, they can be very, very skillful. Most of the feigning injuries and crying is simply a sign of how enormously popular it is, and the fact that it is non-contact. In Rugby, if you whined every five seconds, you'd just look like a moron because it is a hard contact game. Soccer players are also skinnier than e.g. Rugby forwards, for obvious reasons if you cared to use your brain, and not your mouth (or keyboard): they don't have to grapple other players to the ground with their hands; they need to be fast and agile, and to do a lot of running.
One of the great things about it is that it's one of the simplest sports to pick up and play with friends - all you really need is a round ball - yet very hard to master. At high levels tactics are very important, as well as individual player skill, and the game can shift and change very quickly.
If you don't like soccer, that's fine - just don't go around shouting your opinion as fact. A whole lot of people disagree with you, and it just makes you sound like a loud-mouthed moron.
@deliciouspoints Not sure if you're joking or not. If you're serious, I'm sorry, but the crises that lead to mass shootings in the U.S. are far more complex than "monkey-see, monkey-do". If you want to learn how and why mass shootings happen, perhaps read Thich Nhat Hanh.
