A mini rant about people that complain about soccer/football
.:DaYg0sTyLz:.:
Im a big Football and Basketball fan. If any sport has a chance to overtake soccer worldwide...its Basketball, not Football. Basketball has grown ridiculously big worldwide from what it used to be. Football still struggles in a lot of countries, and Soccer has already been big worldwide so it wont grow as fast as Basketball is.

Basketball will never overtake soccer worldwide. I'm English and I'm aware that Basketball is only actually big in about two or three european countries. Even in those european countries its small compared to soccer.
Basketball is only a HUGE sport in North America, everywhere else people do like it but its not particularly big.

I know its fairly big in Spain and Greece, those were two of the countries I was on about, but I also know for a fact that soccer is ten times as big as basketball in those countries at the very least.

True, i think another major factor is that european fanst are way more fanatic and have more passion for their sport than american fans.
