I really don't believe that we have an aversion to other folks sports, but as far as sports goes, we do have an awful lot of choices here, and the time difference is tough to, so its harder for non traditional American sports to get much play, but as Saleen said, things are changing. We do love the Olympics and we are beginning to catch the soccer, ooops, I mean football craze! The World Cup is getting alot of attention these days, not to mention F1, which is now getting some prime time TV slots.

Speaking of that, if America gets into A1GP, with a well known driver and the series takes off, we may well forget all about F1, which hasn't seen an American driver in far to many years. It seem's Michael Andretti cursed all future American drivers for F1!
