The ratings are higher than the NBA Finals or World Series.
“The ratings are higher than the NBA Finals or World Series.”
2 reasons. World Cup is every 4 years so it’s a big deal. 2nd, welcome to New America which is now filled with 3rd worlders. Great, World Cup rating are nice - yeah lousy crime filled country. But hey, ESPN has some nice ratings.
Let’s keep those borders wide open and keep importing 3rd world from Africa/ME and ratings will get even better!
BTW, how does soccer do after the World Cup regarding US TV audiences?
The ratings for an average English Premier League game exceed those for the Super Bowl. Viewership for the World Cup final in 2010 approached a billion people.
The only people who watch American sports are Americans. The only people who watch soccer are everyone else.
