Ab Fpb Card Status Of Credit Card

The popularity of soccer in the United States

While the world has their eyes glued to the television watching the matches and results of the World Cup in South Africa, Americans live their lives as if nothing is happening.

I woke up today at 4:30 am to see the entire South African celebration on TV but I was surprised when I could not find any English Channel was going celebration. I could not believe I gave him a turn all channels to see if there was something. Nothing on ESPN, ESPN2 and nothing on FOX. I saw at the time that they would only pass the Mexico match against South Africa and nothing else.

Thank God for the existence of English-language channels such as Univision and Telemundo have full coverage. Univision was the conclusion from 4am and did not lose anything. Even my 3 American friends who like football had their TVs on Univision. I can not say understood, but at least they could see the celebration.


Now the point of this post:

Why soccer is not popular in the U.S.?

Rather, I teach in pictures:
Yahoo:











(apart from the logo 'Yahoo' to celebrate this special day, their news only shows information of American Football. A look around the page shows that only a small box was dedicated to World News)

MSN:















(This page is a little worse. Your logo does not hold anything and just a small little picture is dedicated to the World)

CNN:











(Similar to MSN.com, nothing is held and only a super small box displays information World)

New York Times:











(Nothing in the form of celebration, just a little picture shows the result of the match vs. Mexico. South Africa)

All photos were taken today (June 11) between 11:49 am-12: 03pm.

United States will never have a football culture that many popular web sites do not teach anything about the world. Many Americans also criticize the World mock this historic event (if you do not believe me just go read the comments on any article of football at yahoo.com).

May the U.S. team does not go far in the world that actually DO NOT DESERVE.
Obviously I want to win Mexico (yes we will win, lol) ..... but I'd rather be a fan of the English before being a U.S. fan:)
