If You Could Save Only One (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=246613)

If You Could Save Only One

If you could save only one and the other two dissapeared forever which would you save?
The NBA
The US Soccer Team
NFL Pre-Season Games

NBA by a looooooooong shot

I'd rather watch Pop Warner preseason games than the NBA or Soccer.

US Soccer, but that's not saying much for the other two.

I voted for the NBA but I love the US Soccer team.

I'd rather watch paint dry than soccer.

From the NBA lockout thread.

I know most people hate the preseason, and I understand that, but if I had to choose, I would choose the NFL preseason.

Would I rather have aids or super aids

Seriously, I'd rather watch Nascar than soccer.

I'd rather watch college golf than soccer.

NFL pre-season.

Why? NFL Tickets often are free because people give them away because the games are meaningless, however tailgating venues etc. are still a lot of fun to be a part of. You get to see the college studs for the first time in NFL uniforms. It's a good way to find out what the late round picks and UDFA's can do....battles for the last few roster spots, cuts deadlines etc. While the gameplay and competition is vanilla, it's still NFL football, which is the most popular sport in the US.

NBA sucks up until the final few weeks of the season and into the playoffs. Everything before that is garbage, horrible refs, no-calls.....the list goes on. The NBA has sucked ever since MJ retired. I love bball, played it all my life.....NCAA bball is MUCH better, but the NBA is better than, say....NHL, Nascar, and for the sake of this argument, soccer.

Soccer? ROFL...........They have their certain audience, but the sport will not catch onto the average sports fan the way the NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, and PGA does. Most people in the USA don't give 2 shits about the sport. You'd be hard pressed to find (even the above-average sports fan) that can name 5 professional soccer players. I know I can't...and don't care either, and I think it's safe to say that there are A LOT of US sports fans that feel this way. Soccer is boring, IMO that will never change.

I'd rather watch Survivor reruns than soccer.

Hell I'd rather watch John Goodman and Roseanne Barr humping than soccer.

So far more people would rather save Gaz' Tequila Rose collection than US Soccer. Twice as many would save NFL pre-season as would save the entire NBA.

An admittedly miniscule sample but trending all the same.

To be honest with you, my sense of patriotism is highest when watching the Olympics and the US Men's National Team.

That's why I chose Soccer.
