Are you sure about that?

The ratings for non-World cup soccer are there, and it's not going away.

Correct. And while World Cup is the biggest thing the soccer world does, people do watch regular season soccer. They watch MLS. They watch the top European leagues even more. More and more soccer is...

NASCAR's popularity, both at the track and on TV, has been dwindling for several years now. The other three you listed are niche sports. People watch three horse races, four golf tournaments and four...

People didn't see the dwindling popularity of baseball coming either, but it came.

I don't break those into four sports. Those are two sports -- football and basketball. Soccer is the third sport.

I'd argue that's not the only demographic. In fact, the African-American community is probably the only young demographic where basketball remains more popular than soccer.

Baseball is still a very enjoyable game to watch in person, but it's absolutely awful to watch on TV. Soccer, in my opinion, is the opposite. It's a better TV sport than live sport (though I do enjoy...

One thing that has really helped the ratings during this World Cup is there is very little time difference between the U.S. and Brazil. It's made watching games a lot easier than the past three World...

I doubt it. The ratings for the World Baseball Classic, which is played every two years, are terrible. And World Series ratings continue to plummet. The fact remains that soccer, at its highest...

I do. The ratings for the World Cup and NBA Finals already are basically a draw. As are the ratings between regular-season games. As soccer continues to gain in popularity, I truly believe it will...

There's no doubt that soccer, at least at its highest level, has already passed baseball. The ratings for World Cup games are much higher than any World Series game. The fact of the matter is that...

There are so many things in this column that expose Coulter's ignorance. She should lose any real sports fan during her spiel about a "heat break." A) Other sports have timeouts, and breaks between...

Any newspaper that runs that trash -- and yes, I'm including my Gannett brethren from Jackson -- should be absolutely ashamed. Ann Coulter represents everything that is wrong with America today.

Does Bradley's dip in form have anything to do with his departure from Roma to Toronto?

Not exactly a fair comparison. Manu, Dirk, Bargnani and Gasol aren't Americans. Jermaine Jones is the son of a U.S. serviceman who was stationed in Germany. His father was giving the ultimate...

We lost the TOP battle 68-32. That's why it seemed like 70 percent -- it almost was!!! I'm not a big fan of the midfield that we started, but I know that Klinsmann is. If he's intent on starting...

Last time I checked, it's on one channel at a time. There are at least four different ESPN channels.

True, but I was speaking specifically of when Gus would be heard as the voice of the World Cup. He can already be heard on a number of Fox soccer broadcasts.

That's what I don't understand about people who complain about soccer -- or anything for that matter. We have so many choices in our lives these days that is very easy to simply ignore something....

Does the general public really understand offsides in hockey? Probably not, but it doesn't stop them from enjoying the thrill of playoff hockey. Dawg80 did a good job of explaining what it is. In...

2018, when Fox gets the World Cup rights from ESPN.

What's the difference between a 3-1 soccer match and a 21-7 football game? Football awards more points for scoring.
