In the UK, soccer, cricket, rugby and snooker are probably the biggest four.
Oh yeah, cricket. There were some fellows that always played that in the park by my apartment in Minneapolis. They dress funny.
Depends on what you mean by big time. Soccer is the only one that's bigger than the main American sports, but of the advanced wealthy nations, America is the only one with a huge population. European countries are smaller so their domestic leagues in other sports aren't as big. Nor are the sports owned by advertising to the same extent. But mega TV money isn't what makes a sport good. I'd rather watch rugby than baseball any day despite it having probably less than 10% of the revenue.
It might be the one sport that's even more boring than baseball.
The English love it. Go figure.
Yeah. You look at the most popular sports in the US and see they're mostly all American made so from a spectators view there is a lot more to interest them than in these other countries that have always had the main spotlight on soccer. You'll always have a cult following for less popular spectator sports but clearly the US has a greater variety of very popular big time spectator sports.
I like baseball. I used to love baseball. The Brewers going to the World Series when I was 7 years old kind of hooked me into it. So did baseball cards. That's another thing about soccer that isn't really a draw to a kid, at least my age, growing up. I don't think there were soccer cards available. I don't know the rules of cricket. It didn't look boring when I glanced at it driving by in my car.
