soldier of fortune Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 I know this has prob been done before, but what are the reasons this fine game hasn't taken off state side. I actively play same, and it and no sissy sport as the bruises on my shins prove. Fair enough it may not be as violent as American Football, or Hockey, but its great. Go on Man Utd.

Yahve Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 1) It's a low scoring game. 2) You can't use your hands. 3) The appeal in ball handling is lost. 4) The playing field is so vast that there is no steady Frenzy. Maybe they should push Micro-Football? ( what do u call the six on six or five on five smaller goal game) I really do think that has a better shot at popularity for the 14+ american crowd.

The NZA Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Major League Soccer overtakes NHL and NBA as third-most attended league Finding new favor: MLS overtakes NHL and NBA as third-most attended league It’s called “the world’s game,” but in the U.S. it has been viewed more like a Third World game, until lately. Major League Soccer has overtaken the NHL and the NBA as the third-most attended league per game in the U.S., based on 2011 attendance numbers. MLS now trails only the NFL and MLB in professional leagues.... not in revenue, granted, and a short NBA season, but still - the sport's finally gaining momentum here! which is awesome, because coming back from europe and seeing world cup games in bars around here was refreshing as well.
