For all ur soccer/football haters. Don't say that soccer is boring, because it isn't. I play soccer, and I love it. It has definitely become popular in the U.S. There is so much youth talent in soccer now. It's one of the most popular youth sports. Soccer will definitely become a popular sport for everyone in about 10 years. It's less likely to be injured, and is always exciting. So what if they dont score every 5 minutes? It just makes each goal much more exciting! Soccer is really a fun sport, and can be played by all. It's not hard to play, but it's really hard to be good. Anyone can play soccer, no matter how tall, fast, or old you are. There are no advantages if you are stronger or older. It's all fair play, and its very entertaining. Unlike American football, baseball, and basketball, it's not stopped every 3 minutes for a commercial break. There are no replays, or changed calls, what the referee says, goes. Just a constant 45 minute half. It's a sport of creativity, imagination, kind of like a artwork. And the players are the artists. The moves they do can be so simple, yet still beats the opponents. Or they can be so complicated, that you have to rewind to see if what you just saw was real. That's soccer, and no, it is not decline. It's growing.

What is the first answer on about?? Obviously a lives in the USA, because in Britain it is still extremely popular. You will say a kid playing football or hear of some football news everyday whether your interested or not, but I think what this question refers to is the decline in Premiership attendances due to the rise in ticket prices.

i think football is on the rise because every year you see shows and hear about all the fantasy leagues going on. now i think that hockey is on the decline because i no longer see it on ESPN but on some station called versus. basketball goes up and down during the season but it is popular in the playoffs and baseball i think is on the rise because it is americas past time and baseball almost goes all year around so it a lot of stations will talk what happens in baseball and even the playoffs every game is a sell out
