After hockey, football is the next most popular sport up here. Not a big surprise.

There really isn't much else. There's baseball, which we only have one team for. Basketball, which we only have one team for. And then there's football. We've got the CFL which is followed by a lot of sports fans up here, and of course we get to watch all the NFL games too. Football is the States' most watched sport, so it makes sense for it to be popular in Canada too.

Well I was talking more about people watching sports and playing sports games. In terms of the amount of people actually playing the sport, then yeah. Soccer is retardedly popular here. I played it for 13 years myself.
