[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure of the "more scoring" needed idea.  Many soccer games are like 4-2 let's say.  That's equivalent to 28-14 football score, which is very normal.  Hockey is around there too. so I think soccer has just about the same amount of scoring as football and hockey.  [/quote]

Go do your research...

MLS Goals per game average 3.22
NHL Goals per game average ~6
NFL points per game average ~50, or 7-10 scoring events per game[/quote]

Since when is the MLS relevant? Back when the EPL’s predecessors were semi pro leagues filled with half drunk farmers playing drunker factory workers, scoring was though the roof- is that the golden age you want to return soccer too [/quote]

ok. The point is even more relevant if you consider EPL which has even less scoring per game. That's a super popular league in the US.  :D  You point to semi pro leagues where scoring is higher. I would also say that at the grassroots level, scoring is also higher. Maybe that is some of the attraction. All of this supports the assertion that substitution rules should be relaxed.[/quote]

So if your theory holds the MLS must be the most popular league in the world? Certainly more popular than the bundesleague la liga and the EPL[/quote]
