I think we all enjoy what we grew up with. And dislike of baseball is pure blasphemy!

 

I will watch World Cup soccer, but that's about it. Even then I live in fear that I'll be looking away in that one instant (among an hour and a half of play) when the goal is scored. Thank god for replay. But what happens if you're in the stadium and you blink during that one goal?

 

I do think there are millions of little kids now playing in America - it's easy to play right away due to the initial lack of skills needed; it's inexpensive; and it's easy to learn. They tend to drift away as fans when they get older. More fun to play than watch, I guess.

 

Bring on the World Cup. I just hope no stadiums (stadia) collapse.
