Actually you are the one showing how little you know now. Please check the Nielsen Ratings for the most watched TV broadcasts of all time.

After you do let me know how many of those "Most Watched" say Super Bowl, and how many say "World Cup".

I am done now. I don't come to FR to insult people, but I do return in kind.

You're kidding right? ~1.3 BILLION people watched the 2002 World Cup final compared to 95 MILLION for the last Super Bowl.

More people watched the World Cup final in Brazil than watched the Super Bowl worldwide.

The education continues......

Your previous post said "most Americans don't watch....." The definition of "most" means, simply, more Americans are watching than not watching. Therefore, while the WC is clearly not watched by most Americans, neither is the Super Bowl watched by "most Americans". NO SPORTING EVENT IS!!!!

But again, I'm still trying to figure out what the number of viewers has to do with the topic of this thread, which is what network has the better announcers for a certain sport. But hey, that's just me....
