Yes, and soccer is the biggest sport in the world.
America itself is different. We don’t act fully like other cultures (and what are the numbers on Japan and ME, not known to be big with an athletics, especially Moslems, who still adore horses). It doesn’t surprise me that Americans have no reason to be in tune with horses,so are not interested.
It’s a theory, but I cannot help noticing the correlation to transport technologies, which includes farming.
You don’t like my theory so you insult. Thanks a lot.
you just flat out said that the Ruffian post i made was wrong...and rambled on about granpas horse or something. I remember what all went into what happened after the Ruffian tragedy...CBS Sports cancelled the rest of their televised races for that year. Match racing was out right banned in many States. The back lash was real....10 years later, with the creation of the Breeders Cup series, did television come back to racing. Belmont Park recently had to cap attendance at 90,000, the crowds were simply too large for the facility. American Pharoah and Justify, the last 2 Triple Crown winners (who EVRYBODY KNOWS)..are both shipped to Ireland and Austrailia for 4 months at a time, to breed...its worldwide now....
