I guess culture must play a big part in it as well. If you grow up with something around you all of the time, it becomes the norm. For us, there's an "alienness" about scoccer and it might be the fact that they tried to bring it over here at the same time they tried to shove the metric system down our throats, both were rejected together.
However they created this new soccer league? here for the immigrants and so far it seems to be able to survive off of the money they get from the refugees. I have no idea if it's any good though compared to the European soccer teams.

That is correct. Norms - NFL in USA, Soccer in Europe, and Cricket in India.
Soccer is more famous in South America as compared to the USA and other North American countries. I can imagine why it's still surviving because a lot of people come from the outside. But I think they will be as good as the European soccer teams since they are deep into it.

That's true. Soccer is like a religion around here.
It's a beautiful thing to see, but also has a lot of ugliness to it with all the fights and stuff like that

I hate the extreme fan culture. They go crazy for celebrities and groups who most probably don't give a flying fuck about them.
