Incredibly, a third of the people in a country that actually has real sporting events are interested in a bizarre ritual in which skinny non-athletes in shorts run randomly about for nine hours pretending not to have arms.
Before anyone jumps on me, YES, YES, I KNOW the average soccer game is only 26 seconds long. It only seems like nine hours.

There is nothing as edge-of-seat exciting as a 1-0 World Cup soccer game.

The other third are Mexicans.

I was thinking America’s Cup at first. Don’t much care about that either.

But, but Slow Joe, who is there to throw out the first ball, said yesterday the cup is “the most consequential sporting event in the world.”
Which just goes to prove that Joe’s elevator doesn’t go to the top floor.

I remember seeing photos of the female Paraguayan and Swedish soccer fans from recent tourneys but not so much of the games.

1. Women's soccer is better than men's because they fall down and cry only when blood is spraying out or a limb is pointed in a medically unlikely direction.
2. Soccer is best when recorded and watched at 2x or 3x speed. It is nicely paced at that. (but then football is best watched with the 30 second skip button to jump over the huddle to the next play)

Yet, ESPN enjoyed fairly good ratings for the World Cup in 2010. I’d watch, especially at the knockout stages.

When football is banned and consigned to the ash-can of history due to too many concussions and hangnails, Americans STILL won't watch soccer.

The World Cup this year may get more US television viewers as Brazil time is closer to US time. Watching live and not in the middle of the night will be a bonus.
