Anyways, I tend to follow the money when it comes to justification for the way anything is the way it is.  The non-stop nature of soccer is the direct opposite of football which has many breaks that allow for zounds of commercials.  More commercials means more money and more money means more promotion, and we all know promotion is almost everything.

To the bold, true. It is a little different at youth levels. At least not the first few grades. Before they get into pads it's still basically flag. Many gym classes play flag through high school.
