As everyone knows, it's Super Bowl Sunday. Everywhere you look, either on TV, online, or otherwise, there's news of the big game.
Without a doubt, the Super Bowl is the single most popular sporting event in the US each year. Abroad, however, it's likely that the top 5 events each year are some form of soccer game.
The question, then, is at what point will a soccer game crack the top 5 in the US? Will it happen on our lifetime? If/when it does, will it be an MLS game or a World Cup/National Team game?
My guess? I think we'll get there one day, most likely a World Cup match, especially if the Men place well in 2010 or 2014. It would be tough to gather enough viewers for an opening round game, but a World Cup Semifinal, Final, or 3rd Place game? Who knows...
