I tried getting into soccer during the Under 20 championships and watched Canada's first game vs Chile...The flopping around and diving I saw killed any chance of me being able to take soccer seriously.
It was frustrating to watch. Having said that, I can appreciate the passion soccer fans have for their sport and still keep an eye on the major world events.
I enjoy baseball but usually just have it on in the background while I read or do work around the house. As Jiri says, it's relaxing and every once in a while something really remarkable happens that makes it worth watching.
