independent studies suggest that the average global viewership (of the Superbowl) is just over 100 million – the vast majority of whom are U.S. viewers [5] (as compared to the estimated 715.1 million people who watched the final match of the 2006 FIFA World Cup).
300 million people also watched the DRAW for the group stage of the World Cup. |

I reckon 100 million is a higher percentage of total Americans than 715 million is of the entire world population. Football being played only in the states really kind of prohibits it from being watched worldwide in any scale.
Soccer is also real big in countries where children have no access to gymnasiums or sporting equipment and they're only means of passing the time is to kick a dried gourd around a dust field. In a lot of places it's all they've got, really. |

![]() First, Americans like Rome that can't respect soccer is just, as Jay would say, LOL. Anyway, I agree with The Sports Guy, that the MLS will never be big in the US because it's no where near the best league in the world, and only the best of anythig will do for the US. p.s. my favorite sport is American Football. p.p.s nice goal Lampard - finally! |
