I believe more men would have watched the Jaguars vs. Bucs over yesterday's soccer game.

I watched text updates of wsop events. Not one second of the soccer.

Jags and Bucs might be pushing it tho. :0003

I have not watched one second of the world cup. Doesn't mean I am a hater of the sport, I'm not. Since I can't watch Dodger baseball due to those Time Warner fuckers the only event coming which will interest me is the British Open. Carry on peeps.

A quick search shows the tv ratings for yesterday's game aren't available but it astounds me that anyone would actually think this is plausible. 25 million watched the game vs. Portugal and they expect yesterday's figures to be as high if not higher.

There was a lot of people at the Arena League Football Game last night too.....:0008

That's what I'm talking about. I think it's about time 'Merica gives the XFL a second shot. Sometimes you don't realize how good something is until it goes away.

31,000 on a Wednesday night in Milwaukee. . . for a preseason game . . . .


Did you see that the NBA is making a jersey change to put a gold tab on the back to signify if the franchise has wona championship? Where did they ever come up with such a neat idea? :shrug:

I like the gold tab. Sells more shirts.

86,000 in the rose bowl tonight for a preseason game. Sporting KC announced I'm conjunction with the USSF a $75 million training facility to be up in Kansas City in 2015. To be paid for in public funds. Can't wait until this sport becomes accepted here.

There is a reason they play in 20,000 seat capacity stadiums.
World cup is over for another 4 years. Soccer will go back to mediocrity in Merica as poon calls it.
Football is just around the corner. Jacksonville average was 60,000 in 2013 for a crappy 4-12 team. Its all good.

Looks like you have things figured out. How many seasons was the XFL around? How many seasons has MLS been around? Which league is still expanding?



Oh yeah, the Jaguars had 60k in attendance per game. That was actual fans in the stadium right? Or did that count what the team bought to not have blackouts as well as all the promotions like free beer to get fans in the stadium?
