i would argue that the interest spiked maybe 10 percent when david beckham landed in LA (but in general, what a failure to attract interest that was!)
agreed, dan.
I would argue that even during the world cup, the percentage of Americans interested in soccer is less than 10%
I would argue that it is difficult to see what the rest of the world does if your head is stuck up your, or someone else’s, rectum.
Of course, I am not saying that ALL Americans ACTUALLY have their heads up their, or someone else’s, rectum, as may merely act like it.
:/ i like to think my head comes out of my own, or someone else’s, rectum at least SOME of the time, and i’m american :/
i would say that the graph is accurate regarding the time frame of interest, but it should only be like 10% tops. who cares about soccer? it’s such a stupid boring waste of time. and i’m pretty sure that virtually no one in the US is interested.
Maybe no one you know…but I guess you haven’t looked at a rec complex lately and seen the hundreds of kids up there playing soccer…or have heard of all the people in this country who follow European soccer teams. Personally, I’d say soccer is a hell of a lot more interesting than something like, say, football (the American kind).
you’re right. a lot of kids DO play rec soccer (me included). it’s a fun game.
but it is boring as f*ck to watch. honestly… it’s low-scoring, long-lasting, and most of the violence is in the stands. how could you pay attention to THAT for 2 hours? don’t call it “more interesting” than OUR football!
one day, Western Europeans will see that hockey is where it’s at (Eastern Europe seems to have gotten the memo, if the Olympics and the ratio of player nationalities in the NHL are any indication).
“Stupid boring waste of time”? I’m pretty sure that virtually no one in the rest of the world is interested in baseball…
sometimes the chinese are
Actually, the Japanese possibly like baseball more than we do.
why does the # of months til go to twenty? World cup is every year…right?
lol… no
no every 4 years
soccer is the most interesting and popular sport in the world, and my parents were one of those “pricks” who pushed me into soccer. and tell you the truth i’m glad.
and football is just a cheap copy of soccer, made to satisfy poeples need for violence.
Why can’t we all just get along and watch curling?
My Lord, I hope you were kidding
The florida marlins or memphis grizzlies would be glad to get half as many fans at their games as compared to the average MLS team. The beautiful game is growing here, just give it time.
How about you all go do some research on the lovely sport of soccer and you will see that it is currently the fastest growing sport in the United States and the amount of spectators is rapidly increasing and will soon pass up the number of spectators for the terrible sport of football.
If you notice, the y axis represents percent of fan interest, which means this graph is normalized to the total number of soccer fans in the US, not the total number of people in the US
i think that’s a f-ing answer
Soccer, yeah right that’s a real cute sport. Specially the way you bouce the ball over your head. I personally don’t like any sport where you don’t use your hands.
