Why Football Failed in America
Ever wondered why the United States of America, perhaps the most sports orientated country in the world, has failed to gain a stronghold on the most popular sport in the world?
Soccer/ football (whatever you want to call it), has actually been around in the US for longer than you may think. Even further to that, back in the 70s, the sport was growing at an exponential rate. So much so, that some thought it would completely take over.
However, this did not happen. Today, we're gonna talk about it.
