I was shocked that this past Rugby world cup which the USA took part in and did much better than ever before was not advertised or reported on at all on any sport networks or news stations. Why is this?

I personally think that Rugby would be very popular here in the United States. Are they worried about its popularity taking over Football? Or is it because they can’t fit as many commercials in during the games?

If people really cared, it would get more coverage, it’s a catch 22 I guess, needs coverage to get people addicted, but stations will go with what already gets them ratings.

Plus, it’s not like there’s any prominent local league with big name players. People like a local connection, or recognizable names
