No, you didn't just say that! Soccer slow? Dude, stop watching the 5
year old girls playing. That's one of the main reasons I prefer soccer
over any sport. It's quick. As far as football goes, yeah maybe when
there is some action they move pretty quickly (as quick as a guy built
like a land rover can), but jeez ya sit there and wait, and wait, and
wait......

Yeah, I know that in every school I attended, the football players were
veritable geniuses.
