Of course it is. But the simple fact that you actually felt the need to point that out, makes it worthwhile.
I don't think soccer is a bad sport. I think it could be better. I don't like it, but I recognize that I am in a very small minority. Some of the most skilled athletes in the world play soccer. It is a complex, game where speed, stamina, quickness and skill are all necessary elements. But it still sucks.
