I notice you didn’t mention the NBA Finals, which happens every year. Which is as an American sport as you can get.
3rd world ? Baseball is 50% Latin American. And it is a dying sport.
Enjoy your Bud ads every 5 minutes as you watch 350 lb fat asses sit on each other in ‘football’.
Olympics are every 4 years too and its a big deal. I’ll watch gymnastics, swimming and even curling because its the Olympics.
Other than the Olympics (4 year event) I could never imagine myself or a buddy saying ‘Hey, girls swimming is on Ch. 5 now, or gymnastics is on ESPN, or curling is on”. A guy would get scoffed at if he did.
Only way soccer does well in the US is the World Cup and amongst the mass forced immigration populace.
