| Signalstar said: USA is all about capitalism and economics. Soccer is not sufficiently monetized yet. It lacks the backing of huge constant sponsors because you gave two 45 minutes halves of play that are commercial free. So tv networks are less inclined to schedule soccer with so little time to sell advertisements. Most soccer leagues around the world are not profitable unlike the NBA and NFL. |
I think it actually has more to do with the US only seriously getting into Soccer in the 70's and 80's, than anything else.
