Soccer is only boring to those ignorant on the sport, which in inherently a result of being closed minded. I can see where someone who never played or took 30 minutes to learn the basics would find it boring. These guys are very athletic and tdun to watch for those knowledgeable on the sport. In fact soccer helped my football and baseball skills by forcing the body to do something different that the other two sports allow, the use if tour hands. Eye-foot coordination greatly improved my hand-eye coordination in baseball. Same way the suggest a LH hitter take some BP from right side of plate and vice versa. The idea is to do something eye coordination wise that is out of your norm, to improve your regular hand-eye coordination.
