World Crunk

If (god forbid) you're not a huge fan of soccer, here's an easy way to get more into the game:

Drink.

The World Cup is a great excuse to get Dr. Unk.  Drinking and soccer go together like, well, drinking and anything.  It's a phenomenon Stuff White People Like lampoons pretty effectively, but frankly, just because something is a bit of a stereotype doesn't mean you should shy away from it.  To wit, I would never expect an African American to not eat fried chicken--that shit is DELICIOUS.

In my opinion, beer should be the drink of choice when watching soccer.  You may opt for liquor or wine (which pretty much makes you a communist), but that's your four weddings and a funeral.

My mother is not the biggest fan of alcohol, so it is in her honor that I remind everyone to be responsible, be of age and have a safe driver if you're going to get schwasted.  With that advice firmly in mind, I present to you the funnest, most educationalest way to enjoy soccer:
