Guys from the US - rate these sports in order of popularity in USA.

Hockey
Football
Baseball
Basketball
Soccer

would have to say in the usa that basketball, football & baseball are all about equal, with hockey a somewhat-distant 2nd place and soccer way way LAST PLACE. I personally cannot stand basketball.

1. Football
2. Baseball
3. Basketball
4. Hockey
5. Soccer

Since you agreed to it, could you have at least given it a cool click? ;D

Pro Football
College Basketball(march madness is huge)
College Football

Personally can't stand baseball, and well never gotten into hockey but don't really mind it

Pro basketball sucks, I'd say the MLS is gaining ground due to the lockout

This is a solid breakdown for sure..

Thats quite amazing to think college sport is rated higher than pro versions of the sport :o

College football is surely amateur isnt it?

Do the pro teams get first draft of the college players, how does that work?,

Only knowledge I have of this is from Jerry Maguire :-X

Thanks guys, interesting stuff.

<~ This, Football is #1. followed by Baseball @ #2. I hardly know anyone these days who interested in Basketball, but apparently there's still some fans around, I havn't watched a pro basketball game since Larry Bird and the Celtics were still winning championships.

Amazes me too mate. Just cant get my head around it, just wouldnt happen here would it? Nearest I can think for prestige/size is the boat race but you wouldnt (I guess) have people packing out stadiums to watch a UK college sports team.

I would agree with this but flip college basketball and college football.

I would also say that hockey is more regional than any of the other sports. I lived in Michigan and hockey was huge there.

Soccer
The rest are shite.

Now you know one more. I prefer basketball among all the above sports but have to acknowledge that it isn't in the top 2 in the US.
