Thanks for reporting this.
It's important to keep in mind that the numbers for Univision are probably 2-2 1/2 times larger than that of ESPN for this match. I imagine there were probably 10-12 million viewers who watched in the US, not a bad number.
Any #'s from last weekend? Just curious if Italy-Brazil outdid USA-Egypt which were both played at the same time.
That's a lot of viewers for soccer. Did this game really mean anything? I thought the World Cup was the big soccer tournament. I bet the USA would've gotten smoked if this game meant anything. This Brazil-USA game would be similar to MLB having a Grapefruit League championship game in March.
Hmmm.....kinda falls in line with recent blue voting patterns in the USA.
All left coast/right coast.
While the flyover states tuned out.
Which accurately reflects upon my long held theory..
Soccer....the Harbinger of the Downfall of the American Empire.
